Shostakovich - Symphony No.8 (1982 Live) - Mravinsky

"Восьмая симфония — кульминация трагедийности в творчестве Шостаковича. Правдивость ее беспощадна, эмоции раскалены до предела, напряженность выразительных средств поистине колоссальна. Симфония необычна. Привычные пропорции света и тени, трагических и оптимистических образов в ней нарушены. Преобладает суровый колорит. Среди пяти частей симфонии нет ни одной, которая играла бы роль интермедии. Каждая из них глубоко трагична." Л. Михеева

Shostakovich: Symphony No. 8/Mravinsky
Review by: David Hurwitz
This Shostakovich Eighth is one of the greatest exemplars of Mravinsky’s art, not to mention a sensational performance of a work that often bogs down in dragging tempos and consequently comes across as merely miserable. This is nowhere more evident than in the fourth-movement passacaglia. After a crushing account of the Toccata, Mravinsky shows that it’s possible to convey gravity without yielding to total stasis. The finale also moves at a lively basic tempo, which makes the emotionally exhausted conclusion all the more affecting. The (then) Leningrad Philharmonic plays sensationally, those grainy but hugely powerful strings effortlessly sustaining the opening movement’s long, dark musical paragraphs–but then every section seems to have been in top form. Happily, the audience is very quiet, and the 1982 sonics are quite good considering their provenance. This is a classic, now available hopefully forever, on-demand, from Arkivmusic.com. [11/29/2007]

　従来盤にはピッチの問題など録音に問題がありましたが、この盤では問題は解消されていて決定盤というべきでしょう。
　演奏はすばらしいもので、特に第1楽章は魂を引き裂くような熾烈な演奏です。ショスタコーヴィチ自身、自作の交響曲の中で第８こそが最高傑作である旨述べていますがそのことが納得できました。この曲は第二次大戦とスターリズムという国内外で、人類史上最大の悲劇を身をもって体験した者のみが創造できた芸術作品だと思います。
