Reviews

  • Shostakovich fanciers should snap up this first complete recording of his often extraordinary score for the 1931 film “Alone (Odna),” the story of a Leningrad teacher getting her mettle tested in a posting to miserable Siberia. Into the pot Shostakovich stirs circus marches, barrel-organ clichés, throat-singing, a wailing theremin and woodwinds at the extremities. Russian singers and Frankfurt’s radio orchestra lap up Fitz-Gerald’s reconstruction; a job well done all round.

    Geoff Brown, The Times of London
