“The music of Shostakovich has been a constant companion on my journey with the Boston Symphony Orchestra. We are incredibly proud to bring together all the symphonies, concertos, and the opera Lady Macbeth of Mtsensk into one, all-encompassing celebration of Dmitri Shostakovich’s genius. His music is a cross-section of what it means to be human, and sharing this exploration of his works over the past ten years with an orchestra as extraordinary and versatile as the Boston Symphony Orchestra has been a great privilege and a real joy. We have also been lucky to share the stage with some of the world’s most talented soloists including Yuja Wang, Yo-Yo Ma, Baiba Skride, and the wonderful cast of our recording of Lady Macbeth of Mtsensk. We are thrilled to present this box set as a tribute to Shostakovich's great legacy and to the remarkable artistry and dedication of everyone who brought this project to life.” - Andris Nelsons ( Boston Symphony Orchestra Music Director)
