Pavel Kogan - Shostakovich: Symphony No. 5

This HDAD+ package contains two discs, one is a two-sided DVD-10 containing two channel 24 bit/192 kHz data on one side, playable on DVD Audio players, and on the other side two channel 24 bit 96 kHz data, playable on DVD video players. The second disc included is a standard two-channel CD containing 16 bit/44.1 kHz data playable on all CD and DVD players.

This first in the series of "Classic Records Presents" features Pavel Kogan conducting his Moscow State Symphony Orchestra performing a piece of music they both know and understand well. The venue for the recording is the famous Congress House in Graz, Austria. The performance and the Elite recording are equally superb. Many argue that Russian Orchestral music is best performed by Russians and this performance lends credibility to that assertion.
