5.0 out of 5 stars Just Wonderful, 18 Sep 2007
By Mr. D. J. Foley "Deano" (London, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
As a retired classical musician having played with the UK's top orchestras I am probably the fussiest of customers.

This box set of my favourite composer's symphonies is not only fabulous value for money but of the very highest calibre.

The WDR Orchestra may not be familiar even to connoisseurs of classical music but they have the most wonderful wind and brass soloists. The astonishingly high standard of individual as well as section/ensemble playing is simply breathtaking. Back this up with the typically 'meaty' German string sound and Shostakovich's music comes to life with a freshness I have rarely heard both in my playing career and since.

If you like me are skeptical of low cost 'collections' please believe me when I say that you will never regret getting your hands on these recordings.

Enjoy!

Dean Foley (former French Horn Player and Shostakovich fan)
