Shostakovich: Symphony No. 4

Shostakovich: Symphony No. 4

Netherlands Radio Philharmonic Orchestra; Wigglesworth

"Everything is humanised, so that the conflict of the Finale is a whirlwind battle rather than a grinding mechanism, and even the circus ditties before the final storm have charm as well as nuance. The end is as mesmerising as it can be, raising unmistakeable parallels with the fading heartbeat of Tchaikovsky's Pathetique. Is Shostakovich's Fourth Symphony an equal masterpiece? Mark Wigglesworth and his Dutch players persuade me that it is." (BBC Music Magazine)
