USSR SO - Gennady Rozhdestvensky (Dir) - Moscow Philharmonic - Kyril Kondrashin (Dir) // A finely etched and insightful Shostakovich 9 from Valery Gergiev is followed by Kirill Kondrashin's overwhelming interpretation of the composer's symphonic swansong, manic intensity juxtaposed with world-weariness to powerful effect.
