The late conductor, Kurt Masur, had a long relationship with the London Philharmonic Orchestra, dating back to 1987. This recording, made during his tenure as Principal Conductor (2000–2007), highlights the close relationship between Conductor and Orchestra. This release adds to a growing collection of Shostakovich symphonies on the LPO label. Previous recordings featuring Kurt Masur have been praised for their ‘emphatic style’ and ‘serious class’. The most recent Shostakovich release (LPO-0080: Symphony Nos. 6 &14, Vladimir Jurowski) was described by BBC Music Magazine as ‘the most stunning Shostakovich disc I have heard this year’.
