Description: Description Evgeny Svetlanov Shostakovich Symphony No.5 2 SACD TOWER RECORDSProduct introduction The final chapter of Svetlanov's SACD project. The overwhelmingly powerful playing and the rich singing spirit are all part of Svetlanov's world!A monumental recording made by Canyon Classics in Moscow for the first time in 1992. Latest reprint with commentary on each first appearance and a new preface! Newly mastered for this reprint by Tomoyoshi Ezaki, who was the recording director at the time. Limited edition of 700 sets with serial number These two works are monumental recordings that Canyon Classics made in Moscow for the first time in 1992. “Symphony No. 5” differs from today's sophisticated style, and is an extremely formidable performance, with a profound sound that exudes an unmistakable majesty. The ``Celebration March'' is also a pleasure to listen to, with the addition of a banda and an easy-going, carefree nature. ``Russian Masterpiece Collection'' is a master's masterpiece that is completed in one fell swoop, inviting endless excitement. This is Svetlanov's brave appearance at the age of 63, with a new manuscript by Nobuyuki Mitsuoka, new mastering in 2023 by Tomoyoshi Ezaki, and green label specifications. In addition, Svetlanov's latest SACD reprint project of the Pony Canyon original, which continues from Scriabin in December 2022, will end with these two works. Although Svetlanov does not have all of Shostakovich's symphonies recorded (unofficial records include live performances, except for No. 4, 11-12, and 14), this "Symphony No. 5" is the most recorded by Shostakovich, including live performances. It was an important repertoire with many records. The interpretation of this song is almost the same in the 1977 recording on Melodya, which was the first session recording of this song, and in multiple live performances, and the stable tempo and profound orchestral sound have remained intact since the beginning, and many Western artists Svetlanov's scale is overwhelming compared to his conductors and his Soviet-era compatriots. The performance time is also longer than that of other conductors, and most of the performances range from 46 minutes to 47 minutes, but in this 1992 Canyon sound source, the performance is in the latter half of 45 minutes, and it is a recording that includes other live performances. It can be said that it is relatively early. However, the degree of condensation in the performance is impressive, and the sound quality is good, so it can be said that it stands out as a recording among the multiple sound sources. In addition, during the Canyon era, "No. 7" recorded in 1995 with The Hague Philharmonic was also released, but since it was sold as a one-shot contract at the time, it is not included in this SACD reprint project. yeah. The 7 songs in the "Russian Masterpiece Collection" were recorded for 3 days from the 18th after the recording of the 2 Shostakovich songs that began on June 15, 1992 (released simultaneously on the 17th and 22-25th) (OVEP00026 Although it is a collection of short pieces including four Tchaikovsky pieces () and encore pieces, it is a great piece that allows you to enjoy the dynamic tones typical of Svetlanov, and is sure to be a great source of excitement. Each song, which can be said to be a dynamic performance, has a large amplitude, but since it is a session recording, it is never sloppy, and the real pleasure is that it plays out exhilaratingly. Of course, the lyrical singing of famous melodies is also appealing, and the trust with the orchestra can be felt throughout. Although the ``Ruslan and Lyudmila'' overture is a classic since Mravinsky, it is a wonderful performance that strongly emits Svetlanov's unique musicality in this short piece. This reprint is the latest reprint by Mr. Hirai of the current Octavia Records, who originally worked on these recordings during the Canyon Classics era, and Mr. Ezaki, who is credited as the recording director, so it fully retains the atmosphere of the time. High-quality sound and mastering were performed using the latest equipment and technology. This is an authentic reproduction with the most appropriate lineup. This commentary includes a new preface commentary by Nobuyuki Mitsuoka in the preface, as well as the preface commentary and track description by Ahiko Yoshii and others at the time of its first appearance, with some additions and corrections. It will be released in a limited edition of 700 sets with serial number and sticker.
