About

Teodor Currentzis and his Siberian orchestra present a new version of Shostakovich’s 14th Symphony, dedicated to Benjamin Britten, that leaves us breathless. He maintains a scrupulous respect for the score and the musicological context in order to give a new energy to the music.

Currentzis is not an artist who barges into the music to produce artificial effects. On the contrary, this recording proves again that the strength of his work comes, above all, from a meticulous respect for the score’s details, with a coherent larger picture of the interpretation. A lesson that teaches us what the ‘early music spirit’ can provide to all repertoire.
