Yesterday evening, the historic Teatru Manoel resonated with the intensity and depth of Shostakovich, as three of his sonatas were masterfully performed by Dmitry Sitkovetsky, Alexandre Razoux, Adam Klocek, and Debbie Shah.

The audience was utterly mesmerised—so captivated that at moments, one could hear a pin drop.

The festival continues with more concerts taking place today, Friday, and tomorrow, Saturday, as we approach a spectacular closing.
