CD Reviews

Levi is awesome!
David C. Green | Suwanee, GA USA | 07/10/2008
(5 out of 5 stars)

"I am a huge fan of Shostakovich's works in general, and this performance of the post-Stalin 10th symphony is quite remarkable. I will agree with the other reviewer that the fast parts are not as fast as others, but the energy that Levi and the Atlanta Symphony give it is fantastic. The angry second movement has a lot of energy, and the percussion truely is driving and powerful. All in all, this is a great buy, and you will not be disappointed."
Very odd...

(3 out of 5 stars)

"Besides my preference for slower tempi in general, this recording just strikes me as missing the point. Playing a composer like Shostakovich slightly slower is great to add weight to the music, but this recording seems to ooze too much in the fast movements, and it's a tad too dead to do the oozing that is necessary for the slow parts.



All in all, playing was pretty good, but I think this interpretation is pretty bizarre. Check it out from a library or something before you buy this one. Make sure you really like it. I'm not at all sure what to make of it yet."
Favorite recording of this symphony
BDR | WARNER ROBINS, GEORGIA United States | 04/09/2010
(5 out of 5 stars)

"Personally I prefer the slower tempos in this recording than in others I own (Pavel Kogan, Neeme Järvi) because of the richer more powerful experience they facilitate."
