Live recordings of Mravinsky and the Leningrad Philharmonic Orchestra performing at the Bergen Music Festival in Norway from May to June 1961 are now available on SACD single-layer disc! The concert on June 2 featured an exceptionally lavish program—Beethoven’s “Eroica” in the first half and Shostakovich’s Symphony No. 5 in the second—and this release captures the entire performance on disc, allowing you to fully savor the rich experience of that day. Beethoven’s “Eroica” was previously released on CD by the Hunt label, but this edition is a reissue sourced from master recordings held by a broadcasting station. Shostakovich’s Symphony No. 5 is making its debut on this format, marking the 13th recording of this work by Mravinsky.\nThis performance of the “Eroica” is nothing short of electrifying. The muscular, utterly unadorned music surges forward with an unstoppable, tremendous momentum, making the 46 minutes fly by in the blink of an eye. Yet it remains meticulous down to the finest details, showcasing astonishing ensemble playing. A lustrous tone, a resilient rhythm, and music and energy that seem to expand endlessly. Even among the many renowned performances of the “Eroica,” it is rare to find one that is this thrilling. You can fully savor this dreamlike moment. The sound quality, which is incomparable to the Hunt release, is also noteworthy.\nWhile later recordings of Shostakovich’s Symphony No. 5 have long reigned as definitive versions, this performance clearly radiates a youthful vigor and is brimming with energy—making it incredibly fresh and captivating. It can truly be called a new definitive recording.\nKing International\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Altus","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53414290784545,"sku":"4543638803156","price":5690.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0568\/8482\/2076\/files\/4543638803156.jpg?v=1788096562","url":"https:\/\/cdsvinyljapan.com\/products\/4543638803156","provider":"CDs Vinyl Japan Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
