Stokowski Edition, Vol. 8

In this eighth volume of the "Stokowski Edition," the great American maestro approaches Dmitri Shostakovich's Tenth Symphony, one of the most intense and significant works of twentieth-century symphony, with intensity and rigor. Conducting the London Symphony Orchestra, Stokowski highlights the dramatic contrasts, tense silences, and sudden rhythmic explosions that characterize the score. His interpretation captures the tormented soul of the Soviet composer, amidst political shadows and bursts of creative freedom. This powerful recording, interpreted with energy and depth, conveys the full expressive power of Shostakovich's music.
