Three Symphonies

To call Shostakovitch's
Fifth Symphony a repertory
standard" is to reveal how
we gradually are absorbing
more modern works into the
scheme of things. Angel Rec

good version with Constantin
Silvestri conducting the
Vienna Philharmonic. Where
this can be over-weighted
and ponderous, Silvestri
keeps it surcharged with
light-textured excitement.
Then there is RCA Victor's

mortal. For this music has
