It can truly be called a masterpiece in which Shostakovich has condensed the very essence of symphonic composition.\nRostropovich, who also had a close connection with the composer, draws attention for his meticulous conducting, which pays close attention to every detail of the score. As with his previous recording of Symphony No. 5, this performance displays even greater maturity than his earlier version. The passionate performance by the London Symphony Orchestra—a ensemble of virtuosos—is overwhelmingly intense. It seems the local media also gave it high praise immediately following the live performance. For Rostropovich, this second complete recording cycle is off to a flying start!\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"LSO Live","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53595671757089,"sku":"822231106029","price":122.0,"currency_code":"MOP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0568\/8482\/2076\/files\/822231106029.jpg?v=1790482224","url":"https:\/\/cdsvinyljapan.com\/en-mo\/products\/822231106029","provider":"CDs Vinyl Japan Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
