Symphonies nos. 1 & 6
Album by Dmitri Dmitrievich Shostakovich & New York Philharmonic & Leonard Bernstein
Symphonies nos. 1 & 6 is a recording of orchestral works by Dmitri Shostakovich, featuring compositions from 1925 and 1939. The first was written when he was a student and is concise and brightly scored with chamber-like textures and sharp rhythms, while the later work is more expansive and episodic, with extended slow passages, darker orchestral colours and a turn toward a more dramatic, mature Soviet-era voice in his output.
First released: 1993
