Shostakovich - Symphony No. 10 (Bavarian Radio Symphony Orchestra, Sir Georg Solti)

[@pibbles-a-plenty1105]

I think his 10th, is Shostakovitch's signature symphony, grand and beautiful, it will stand for music lovers until the end of time. 🎵❤❤❤❤❤

Solti - a true legend! What a stunning performance!! Thank you for sharing this wonderful music

[@PatrickNakamura]

Years back when Solti took the Chicago Symphony on tour, he used the second movement of the 10th Symphony as an encore. The brass did not hold back. The audience would go wild.

This far outclasses the 5th to me which is supposed to be his masterpiece - love the 10th! The 10th is glorious.

[@paullewis2413]

I think you have confused popularity with greatness. While the 5th certainly is a great symphony, no10 is by general consensus by those who are familiar with all his best works as Shostakovich’s finest symphony.

[@arnekorpen3143]

@@paullewis2413 I am familiar with his major works and the 10th is not his greatest one by far. I doubt he himself saw it that way, he even stated he was dissatisfied with the Moderato movement. Not to mention that the concept of "greatestness" is nonsensical by itself. Especially when you have to compare with the 4th, the 7th, the 8th, the 11th, the 15th.

WOW! Shostakovich and Solti at their very best.

Gloria ad un autentico genio della storia della musica ed a un capolavoro assoluto della storia della forma sinfonica. Esecuzione magnificamente virtuosistica, impeccabile sotto l'aspetto tecnico, ma anche poeticamente commovente.

[@Altonahh10]

The unconcealed joy with which this symphony ends, the crazed grimace hurled at Stalin in the 2nd movement, the threatening overtones that are always concerned with the individual and not with a mood, all this makes this symphony for me an absolute heavyweight in 20th century symphonic music. One can grow intellectually and emotionally with Shostakovich's music, with the 10th one probably finds the very greatest alternation of feelings and moods because it is so personal.

[@BytomGirl]

"One can grow intellectually and emotionally with Shostakovich's music"... so perfectly said. That is how I recognize human potential .. if one stays with 2nd waltz because it is a pretty music from Stalin's movie, that person has never grown to appreciate the gamut of feelings and emotions, one who started with the waltz and slowly understood other works and graduated to Dmitri's symphonies is the person with emotional depth.

[@Altonahh10]

@@BytomGirl I absolutely agree with you. Only when music stimulates all the senses is it good music for me. Of course, Shostakovich also composed trivialities, more or less to earn money or pass the time, which certainly includes the jazz suites from which this waltz is taken. His symphonies or the two cello concertos are made of completely different stuff. You have to be awake, empathise and question what levels what we hear really has. And, as Clytemnestra sings so beautifully in Strauss' Elektra - "what the truth is, no man can bring out". That is true art.

I've always said that if you want to get a feel for how it was like to live in Stalin's USSR, you can read Solzhenitsyn...or listen to this symphony.

[@nakiusagi8194]

The orchestra does not seem to have spent enough time practicing, but this is a wonderful performance, beautifully rendered by Maestro Solti.

Do you have the 9th? Solti conducted this same group in 1992 playing Shosty 9. One of my favorite recordings, but can't find it anywhere anymore.

[@wocomoMUSIC]

Not yet at least :(

Interessante Schlägeltechnik des Paukers. Ich sehe selten jemanden, der sich mit dem Oberkörper und den Unterarmen derartig in die Schläge legt.
