Shostakovich's String Quartet No.8 - arranged for string orchestra as the Chamber Symphony Op.110a by Rudolf Barshai - is one of the most powerful and personal works of art of the twentieth-century.
The Academy of St Martin in the Fields filmed this performance at Blackheath Halls in south London in August 2020 - the first project the orchestra did together after the country went into lockdown due to the COVID-19 pandemic in March.
