That's a stunning symphony, Jack. My personal favourite is the Andre Previn 13th, he has a special understanding of Shostakovich and that old EMI recording is excellent, unnerving and with real menace.

That's a stunning symphony, Jack. My personal favourite is the Andre Previn 13th, he has a special understanding of Shostakovich and that old EMI recording is excellent, unnerving and with real menace.
This afternoon:
Various orchestral pieces by Ravel - Previn/LSO (EMI) and Paray/Detroit SO (Mercury)
Shostakovitch - Violin Sonata. Oistrakh/Richter.
Yay! My hometown band.Quote:
