Symphony No. 8 in C minor op. 65

Kirill Petrenko describes Dmitri Shostakovich’s Eighth Symphony as an “incredible psychological drama”. The composer wrote it while his life was in danger during the Second World War: between a perilous existence and Stalinist censorship. The
Musically, each of the three symphonies is a world of its own – what unites them is the desire for freedom: in one case whispered behind closed doors, in another ironically distorted, in another shouted out. Shostakovich’s Eighth delivered a forced-smile tragedy to the authority greedy for patriotic hymns. And despite all the camouflage, the work was banned after a few years. With his Ninth Symphony, the composer then made a surprising u-turn, so that he had to remain silent as a symphonist until
The Tenth burst out of Shostakovich – after an eight-year hiatus – immediately after Stalin’s death. Kirill Petrenko calls the work in which the composer makes himself the protagonist the “greatest liberation in his artistic work after theFifth”: his monogram in tones – DSCH – triumphs in a fierce battle over the mighty machinery of the dictatorship. The hope for freedom that stands at the end of this symphony holds great topicality as a musical message.
The edition contains the recordings, made during the Corona pandemic, on two CDs and a Blu-ray. They are accompanied by an interview film with Kirill Petrenko and in-depth texts on Shostakovich’s works. In the foreword, the chief conductor of theBerliner Philharmoniker also explains his attachment to the composer’s work. The edition was designed by Thomas Demand.

Hi Oscar. Maybe you can deliver us a
review of Kirill Petrenko's readings of
8, 9, and 10, with some comparisons,
which would be much appreciated.

I don't think Bohm ever heard of Shosty, let alone conduct him. Has the VPO ever played him. Maybe Fedoseyev did some with the VPO?

When Hurwitz was discussing "the best Shostakovich box" a while ago,
he mentioned the M. Sanderling one, which he had just received and
expressed some enthusiasm for it. Some time later, someone commented
to one of his YouTube videos, wondering what he finally thought of it,
but Hurwitz said words to the effect that "considering it went out of
print almost immediately, I didn't deal with it."
M. Sanderling did a sensational version of the Leningrad symphony on
01 Jun 2019 with the Berlin Philharmonic, available in the Digital
Concert Hall. At its conclusion, the audience went totally nuts
(favorably).
