Product Description The first release in a complete Shostakovich cycle, recorded by Deutsche Grammophon with the Boston Symphony Orchestra and its newly appointed director, Andris Nelsons. Nelsons is one of the last conductors of his generation who grew up in the Soviet musical tradition, having studied in St. Petersburg with Alexander Titov and Mariss Jansons. The first installment features Shostakovich's 10th Symphony and Passacaglia from Lady Macbeth. Review Nelsons is Superman --Gramophone Every time I ve seen him conduct - in Boston, Tanglewood, New York, and Bayreuth - he has set off brushfires of intensity. [...] Nelsons produces full-body impact: instead of shattering about your ears, the sound engulfs you. He is a master at controlling dynamics to create a kinetic, fluctuating mass. --The New Yorker Andris Nelsons conducted with keen focus and vigor, eliciting tonal beauty, technical precision and obvious engagement from the orchestra. --The Wall Street Journal
