London Symphony Orchestra - Shostakovich: Symphony No. 8
Shostakovich: Symphony No. 8
This Shostakovich symphony in C minor is from 1943. The Eighth is very strong and somber. A strong performance by André Previn and the London Symphony Orchestra make this one of my favorite 20th century symphonies.
