Shostakovich's symphonies by British conductor Stephen Lloyd-Gonzalez are straight-forward and enjoyable. The Sixth and Ninth Symphonies are the smallest of the 15 symphonies, but they offer a glimpse into the composer's more enigmatic side. No. 6 is characterized by the contrast between the nocturne-like Largo and the lively second and third movements. No. 9, which begins in a playful Haydn-esque manner, progresses through a whirlwind of virtuosity into a bleak world. This is a fine performance that gives both pieces, which require unique storytelling, a straightforward listening experience with clear expression.
