The 2022 concert of the Israel Philharmonic Orchestra (IPO), conducted by Lahav Shani and featuring violinist Sayaka Shoji, was a captivating evening. Shani led a bold performance of Beethovens Leonore Overture No. 3, followed by Shojis stunning rendition of Tchaikovskys Violin Concerto. Her expressive, virtuosic playing was complemented perfectly by Shani and the IPO. The concert concluded with Stravinskys Firebird Suite (1919), showcasing Shanis dynamic conducting.
