SHOSTAKOVICH - SYMPHONY NO. 5 - KOGAN - MOSCOW STATE SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA (HDAD)

Shostakovich Symphony No. 5/Kogan/Moscow State Symphony Orchestra (HDAD)

Recorded on October 11th and 12th in 1999 by the Elite Recording team of Marc Aubort and the late Joanna Nickrenz on behalf of Classic Records. This first in the series of Classic Records Presents features Pavel Kogan conducting his Moscow State Symphony Orchestra performing a piece of music they both know and well understand. The venue for the recording is the famous Congress House in Graz, Austria. The performance and the Elite recording are equally superb. Many argue that Russian Orchestral music is best performed by Russians and this performance lends credibility to that assertion.
