专辑简介
The latest newcomer in the successful recording series with The Philadelphia Orchestra and its Music Director Christoph Eschenbach features Dmitri Shostakovich's perennially popular Fifth Symphony. The Largo movement --one of the most heartrendingly beautiful slow movements written by the composer--and the bombastic Finale provide for an entrancing super audio listening experience with the world-renowned sound of The Philadelphia Orchestra. Officially viewed as "the practical creative reply of a Soviet artist to just criticism," this symphony was the Russian composer's mid-career coup--after his music had been politically attacked, he got back into the good graces of both communist officials and the public, who stood and cheered its première in 1937. As a special bonus, this disc also contains the haunting song cycle of Seven Romances on Poems of Alexander Blok(1880-1921), making this unusual coupling a unique release with a strong sales point; Christoph Eschenbach performs on piano together with the acclaimed mezzosoprano Yvonne Naef and two members of the The Philadelphia Orchestra. This disc should build on the huge success of five previous releases under the "formidable Ondine/Eschenbach/Philadelphia partnership," which has repeatedly been praised in the international press
