...The bottom line is that Shostakovich the conductor doesn't put a foot wrong anywhere. There's nothing controversial here, no extremes of fast or slow, no exaggerating the dark and miserable--but there's also no underplaying of the music's intensity. Shostakovich catches the flow of each piece, finding a balanced and unusually rich range of expression on both the happy and sad sides of the emotional ledger. The First and Ninth Symphonies, so often dour in the hands of conductors who refuse to believe that this composer could ever indulge in genuine humor, emerge with plenty of personality and with a real sense of fun. The much maligned Twelfth has tremendous formal cogency and the best-timed coda since Mravinsky (and, curiously, Haitink).

Finally, the various choirs and soloists all sing very well (Mikhail Russov is a bit wooly-toned in the Fourteenth, but authentically dark sounding). The Second Symphony, real sirens and all, comes off particularly impressively. If any performance can make sense of this avowed musical experiment, it's this one (the Third remains a formless potpourri no matter who conducts it). The live sonics are very faithful to the sound of the orchestra, and the audience, while present, is invariably well-behaved. I think it's important that Maxim Shostakovich's views on this music have been preserved at last, and if the result hasn't the technical perfection of the best of the competition, it has such honesty and genuine excitement that it really doesn't matter. This is a cycle to live with--a true reference for anyone wanting a baseline view of how each work ought to go, and what it expresses. [10/17/2006]
