Piano Concerto no. 2 / Symphony no. 5

Album by Dmitri Dmitrievich Shostakovich

Piano Concerto No. 2 / Symphony No. 5 is a recording pairing of two orchestral works by Russian composer Dmitri Shostakovich, composed in 1957 and 1937 respectively. The pairing contrasts a lyrical, technically demanding piano concerto with a large-scale symphony that consolidated Shostakovich's public reputation amid the political pressures of the 1930s, offering both virtuosic display and broad symphonic argument that occupy distinct places in his oeuvre.
