About

‘Santtu conducts Shostakovich: Symphony No. 10’ is the fifth album from Philharmonia Records. Largely interpreted as depicting Stalin’s regime in Russia, the orchestra delivers tragedy, violence and gloom before the brief but triumphant finale.

Conducted by Santtu-Matias Rouvali, this performance was recorded at Southbank Centre’s Royal Festival Hall in April 2024.

Praise for ‘Santtu conducts Shostakovich: Symphonies 6 & 9’:

‘Rouvali (superbly abetted by some outstanding orchestral playing) controls the evolving emotive power… utterly convincingly… Rouvali fully understands the myriad expression of this rare masterpiece: he is splendidly followed by the great Philharmonia Orchestra on top form, which is beautifully balanced throughout… The recordings are exceptionally good’ - Musical Opinion (*****)

‘Santtu-Matias Rouvali proves himself a persuasive Shostakovich conductor on this live recording… both symphonies here are thoughtfully and often imaginatively realised’ - Gramophone
