To celebrate the new Klanglogo label, we are pleased to present a new collection of Shostakovich's orchestral works by Howard Griffiths, the famous British conductor who has made many famous recordings, and the Frankfurt Brandenburg State Orchestra, of which he was the general music director.

Howard Griffiths was born in England in 1950. A graduate of the Royal College of Music in London, he has conducted many of the world's leading orchestras and has released more than 100 discs on various labels.The Frankfurt Brandenburg State Orchestra (based in Frankfurt an der Oder in Brandenburg near the Polish border, not in Frankfurt am Main in Hesse), of which Griffiths was general music director from the 2007/08 season until 2018, has been steadily gaining fans in Japan, including successes in Japan under the direction of Takao Ukigaya The orchestra has been steadily gaining fans in Japan, including a successful tour of Japan conducted by Takao Ukigaya. The energetic performance brings out the light side of Shostakovich's music, which is different from the serious music of his symphonies and string quartets, as he demonstrated his talent for all kinds of music, from popular music to practical music. The performance of "Piano Concerto No. 1" by Romain Leroux, who is popular in Japan for his repeated appearances at La Folle Journée au Japon and master classes, is also a highlight of the program.
