 | | The symphony has four movements: In music, a movement is a large division of a larger composition or musical form. | | | The Symphony No. 10 in E minor (Opus 93) by Dmitri Shostakovich was premiered by the Leningrad Philharmonic Orchestra under Yevgeny Mravinsky on 17 December 1953, following the death of Stalin in March that year. | | | A scherzo (plural scherzi) is a name given to a piece of music or a movement from a larger piece such as a symphony. |

| | ipedia.com: Dmitri Shostakovich Article |
| | Sollertinsky introduced Shostakovich to the music of Gustav Mahler, which had a strong influence on his music from the Fourth Symphony onwards. | | | The Fifth Symphony of 1937 seems something of a compromise: it is not overtly political, either for or against the regime, and it is musically conservative without being simplistic. | | | The restrictions on Shostakovich's music and living arrangements were eased in 1949, in order to secure his participation in a delegation of Soviet notables to the U.S. That year he also wrote his cantata Song of the Forests, which praised Stalin as the "great gardener". |

| | Shostakovich's Symphony No. 4 |
| | The present triple concerto opens with a surprise: there is no tutti introduction; instead, the solo violin enters right away with a lyrical melody, repeated in turn by the oboe and the cello. | | | The Cleveland Orchestra recorded Shostakovich’s Fifth Symphony in 1942 with Artur Rodzinski and in 1981 with Lorin Maazel. | | | Contemporary reports of the boy's accomplishments are astounding; listeners simply couldn't believe their ears when they heard Wolfgang improvise, sight-read, play the piano, the organ, and the violin with equal mastery. |

| | MobileGamer.biz :: Shostakovich: Symphony No. 7 |
| | I love Shostakovich, and I listen eagerly to all his symphonies except for the acknowledged duds--the Seventh and Twelfth--and socialist hackwork--the Third and Eleventh. | | | This is music entirely different to the overwhelmingly tense and strident fourth symphony, to the melancholy introspection of the fifth symphony (whose "triumphant" finale, even, raises more questions than it solves), to the restless unease of the sixth. | | | Whatever the external circumstances of the composer's life before and during the composition of the seventh symphony, he is saying something in this music here, which is in sharp contrast to the symphonies immediately preceding. |

| | Visuals are quite good, the sound is terrific, and most importantly, the Moscow State Symphony Orchestra under the baton of Music Director Pavel Kogan (yes, son of violinist Leonid Kogan), are caught in a moment of white heat and intensity. | | | And this riveting performance by the Moscow State Symphony Orchestra under the baton of Pavel Kogan makes the case for the 10th as the apex of Shostakovich's art. | | | Important "extras" for the DVD include the optional musical analysis subtitles, which can enhance the viewing experience for both the seasoned listener as well as those who are coming to the music as Shostakovich neophytes. |

| | The recording need make no apologies, although there are the inevitable minor glitches of capturing a large ensemble on the wing. | | | His own stature as a conductor of Mahler was first demonstrated to the outside world on the MahlerFest CD of the massive Symphony No.8, which was issued a few years ago. | | | Even without the appeal of hearing Wheeler's version for the first time, I'd want this Mahler 10 in my collection; it is that good a performance. |

| | [Shostakovich - Symphony No.10] notes by Paul Serotsky |
| | Our ears insist instinctively that the Tenth Symphony is a masterpiece, but to comprehend its construction, to “prove” it is a symphony, we must divine the drama. | | | Where this dramatic aspect predominates, you will hear accusations of “propagandist!” Where the musical predominates, Shostakovich seems a good, if wayward, composer. | | | Note originally commissioned by the Vancouver Symphony for a concert given on 4 October 2003 |

| | I love Shostakovich and when I hear him I want to be traumatised and terrorised by the music. | | | Wow!!!This recording of Schostakovich's elegic and brutal and awesome 11th Symphony is another stunning example of high-res DSD technology at its very best! | | | I think the indulgence works less well in some of the more terrifying music, esp. those instances in which the winds and strings swirl around the heavy brass chorales tattooed throughout the symphony, and the allegro sections which build up to them. |

| | Composed in 1953, his Tenth Symphony is a work of typical contradiction (it has been called an ‘optimistic tragedy’), but its sweep and power are as undeniable as its ultimate message of hope. | | | Though it was completed in 1948, the emotional strength and complexity of Shostakovich’s First Violin Concerto meant that the composer felt unable to unveil it until 1955, when the cultural oppressions of the Stalin regime had passed. | | | Download Shostakovich Symphonies on LSO Live from iTunes |

| | INKPOT#60 CLASSICAL MUSIC REVIEWS: SHOSTAKOVICH Symphony No.10 - An Ink-troduction |
| | With this, the symphony rolls to a triumphant close - but not before the D-S-C-H theme is declared in octaves by almost the entire symphonic range with tremendous drive, signaling the victory of the man, the composer, the artist. | | | The Tenth Symphony in E minor, coming just after Stalin's death in 1953, is very clearly an autobiographical symphony, very free in the "decadence and Western disharmony" that Stalin had so hated. | | | Also -- personal favorite recording is CHANDOS 8630, Neeme Järvi & the Scottish National Orchestra: Symphony 10 & Ballet Suite 4, also from 1953. |
