Description:

[Shostakovich, the greatest symphonic composer of the 20th century, created 15 symphonies. This recording of the 10th Symphony, composed the year after Stalin's death, symbolizes the liberalization of the arts, and is performed by Karajan conducting the Berlin Philharmonic. This is a fascinating recording that makes full use of a finely honed ensemble and brilliant tone to vividly reproduce the vivid sounds and rich nuances of the work. Rubidium clock cutting. Recorded February 1981, Berlin [Performed by] Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra, Herbert von Karajan, conductor
