Description:

Tabakov's Ninth Edition of the Complete Shostakovich Symphonies Recording Cycle! No. 2 "Dedicated to the October Revolution" and No. 12 "1917" The latest edition of the complete Shostakovich symphonies recording cycle conducted by Emil Tabakov. The complete cycle is now only one disc away from being completed, except for this disc, and we are finally reaching it. The last disc, the coupling of No. 3 and No. 14 (GD387), was specially selected by Record Geijutsu magazine, and the other discs have also been selected as semi-selected discs. The unusually high tension of No. 2 "Dedication to the October Revolution," which begins with mysterious and unsettling string movements in the bass register, and the dramatic, undulating development of No. 12, a 40-minute work of great length, are all part of Tobaccoff's style. The Bulgarian Radio Symphony Orchestra, which is by no means a sophisticated orchestra, was given an impassioned performance. This is a recommended disc that will make even the most hardcore Shostakovich fan roar. Tobu Land System
