Oh To Believe in Another World: Shostakovich Symphony No.10 - Brighton Philharmonic Orchestra

Following a blockbuster season, the Brighton Philharmonic Orchestra and their Music Director Joanna MacGregor are thrilled to collaborate with one of the world’s greatest living artists, William Kentridge.
Using collage, puppets and masked actors in his animated film Oh To Believe in Another World, Kentridge creates a dream-like “abandoned Soviet museum” to accompany Shostakovich’s powerful Symphony No. 10. Kentridge will introduce this astonishing work from the stage, drawing on the politics of oppression in his native South Africa and around the world.
