Title: Which versions of Shostakovich symphonies do you like best? Post by: guest377 on June 14, 2017, 04:09:02 pm OK as a collector of LPs CDs and various mp3s of the DS's symphonies... what versions do you like the best? I especially like the Rostropovich recordings. Actually, I remember Rostropovich performing the DS Cello Concerto with the DSO several years ago.. I was in the front row.. on edge of my seat with every note. Also... Neeme Jarvi's are also great additions.
