Title: OUTSTANDING!
Review: The five previous customer reviewers offered lengthy discussions of Mariss Jansons and the PSO's latest CD of Shostakovich's Symphony No. 8. Their reviews provide tons of information, critiques, and honest opinions for anyone trying to make up their minds regarding this CD. For the less expert classical music listeners and/or non-diehard Shostakovich listeners, I can admit to being a classical music fan who knows what I do or don't like to hear. Therefore, I will simply say this CD is STUNNING and I love listening to it.Mr. Jansons and the PSO are marvelous together. Their work reveals the powerful emotions involved in this symphony and their CD leaves me wanting to learn more about Shostakovich's music and his world.Congratulations to Mr. Jansons and the musicians of the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra for making this momentous piece a joy for the novice as well as the expert listener.
