About

On Volume 6 of the complete symphonies of Dmitri Shostakovich on MDG, the brilliantly arrayed Beethoven Orchestra of Bonn teams up with the Czech Philharmonic Chorus of Brno for performances of two of the composer's most highly political works.
 
Thirty-four years separate Symphonies Nos. 2 and 12, but both are firmly rooted in the communist Russia of Lenin and Stalin.
 
On the previous recordings, Klassik.com raved, “With this Shostakovich cycle Roman Kofman has landed a genuine success. Perhaps in twenty years most conductors will be interpreting Shostakovich in similar fashion.”
