Cello Concerto no. 1 / Symphony no. 1
Album by Dmitri Dmitrievich Shostakovich & Mstislav Rostropovich & The Philadelphia Orchestra & Eugene Ormandy
Cello Concerto No. 1 / Symphony No. 1 is a compilation recording of orchestral works by Dmitri Shostakovich, the concerto composed in 1959 and the symphony in 1925. The two pieces contrast the concise, youthful energy and neoclassical influences of the early symphony with the later concerto's intense, brooding solo writing and modernist orchestral textures, together illustrating key stages in Shostakovich's development as a composer.
First released: 8th November 1959
