Description
“Three greats of Russian musicianship in modern recordings, including Shostakovich’s final work, published posthumously (viola sonata)”
“Make your choice based on sound, cost, and availability, and you can’t go wrong.” (MusicWeb International)
The recordings sound as though some digital restoration has been accomplished, and the album credit given for ‘remastering’ reinforces this impression of very quiet background, clean sound at peak levels, and reduced audience noise.(MusicWeb)
