Hye-Jin Kim and East Lansing native Ara Gregorian, a husband-and-wife duo, will take the stage for Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart’s joyous and tuneful Sinfonia Concertante. Shostakovich wrote his Symphony No. 9 at the conclusion of World War II, and audiences were expecting something epic. What he gave them instead was a work of Mozartian proportions, but pure Shostakovich in its wit, sparkle, and complex emotional landscape.
