On Monday, one of the great modernist composers, Dmitri Shostakovich, would have been 100 years old. All around the world, classical musicians and audiences will be celebrating with performances of his music. The major Washington concerts in honor of the Shostakovich centennial, with the National Symphony Orchestra, are scheduled for November. However, there are a few concerts, Shostakovich and otherwise, to tell you about this week.

DSCH:
>> If you really love Shostakovich, you might be interested in going to Baltimore on Wednesday (September 27, 8 p.m.) to hear the Monument Piano Trio in an all-Shostakovich program with soprano Janice Chandler-Eteme, at the Peabody Institute’s Friedberg Hall. This recital will include the second piano trio (op. 67), a piano trio arrangement of the fifteenth symphony, and the Seven Romances on Poems by Alexander Blok for soprano and piano trio. Tickets: $20 (students, $10).

>> On Thursday (September 28, 8 p.m.), former music director Yuri Temirkanov will return to lead the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra in a concert at Strathmore. The program includes Shostakovich’s fifth symphony, and mezzo-soprano Nancy Maultsby in Mahler’s song cycle Kindertotenlieder. Tickets: $80 to $43. If you miss this concert at Strathmore, it will repeat on Friday and Saturday (September 29 and 30, 8 p.m.) and Sunday afternoon (October 1, 3 p.m.) at Meyerhoff Hall in Baltimore.

>> Finally, on Friday (September 29, 8 p.m.), the University of Maryland Symphony Orchestra will make its contribution to the celebration, with a concert featuring Shostakovich’s first piano concerto, with pianist Rita Sloan and Chris Gekker on the solo trumpet part (both musicians are faculty members at Maryland).
