¡Shostakovich: Symphony No.5
¡Efrem Kurtz (conductor), NHK Symphony Orchestra
Description
[Machine Translation] That Kurz was waving Shostakovich's symphonies! Efrem Kurtz ( 1900-1995 ) studied under Glazunov at the Petersburg Conservatory, so he is Shostakovich's brother. Having breathed the air of the same era, Kurz's Shostakovich is as convincing as ever. The famous No. 5 is rare and precious, as there is no other recording of it. The recording of Shostakovich No. 9 with the New York Philharmonic in 1949 is also available, but this is a newer recording, and Kurz's interpretation can be appreciated more fully. Includes Japanese obi and commentary. Recorded: April 14, 1962 at NHK Hall, May 15-17, 1962 at Tokyo Bunka Kaikan (live)
