"Vurdering: Presto disc of the week".
"Nelsons removes any crudeness to make them smoother and more rounded. It's fascinating to hear how this changes the mood from the usual one of open terror to something more quietly unsettling".

"A first-choice Fifth, a top-echelon Eighth and a treat of a suite; roll on the Seventh".

"Gergiev captures the sad, equivocal mood of that opening movement, and Kavakos ... spins a light, singing line that can't fail to impress ... A perplexing symphony and an exhilarating concerto; Gergiev's as unpredictable as ever".

"At amerikanere meget ofte er de bedste til russisk musik, har været kendt længe - de fatter ligesom både storheden og det militante i tonen. Boston Symphony Orchestra spiller [symfoni] nummer 5, 8 og 9 under ledelse af Andris Nelsons med stort engagement og forbløffende fuld af interessante detaljer [Årets 10 bedste klassiske udgivelser: Nr. 10]".

"Vurdering: BBC music choice" - "If the forst movement of the Ninth seems playful rather than sarcastic, Wigglesworth's fine ear for orchestral sonority always brings out unusual elements in the scoring. His insights make this performance and that of the 12th well worth hearing, and an extremely viable alternative to the complete cycles that are delivered under the direction of Kitajenko, Kondrashin or Jansons".

"Deres 8. symfoni står stærkest på albummet mellem tænderskærende anspændthed af tålmodighed i de ret lange stræk hen imod højdepunkterne".

"Andris Nelsons und die Bostoner Sinfoniker stellen die ersten CDs ihres Schostakowitsch-Zyklus unter das Motto 'In Stalins Schatten' - und tun dan alles, um dieses Motto zu widerlegen. Selten hat Schostakowitsch so melodisch und friedvoll geklungen. Sanft Streicheln die Geigen der gebeutelten Russen Seele. Die hervorragenden Bläsersolisten tragen zum überragenden Klang dieser Aufnahme bei. Schostakowitsch wird hier als souveräner Künstler vorgestellt, der sich von den Launen der Diktatur und von Schicksalsschlägen nicht weiter verbiegen liess als unbedingt nötig".

"Leonidas Kavakos and Valery Gergiev establish a partnership from the outset. This is a truly symphonic performance in which the Mariinsky Orchestra plays as active and vibrant a role in the musical dialogue as the soloist ... Kavakos mesmerises the listener with the subtle poetry of his phrasing".

"The fine Dutch orchestra might not have the distinctive timbre or weight of sonority of bigger names but its scrupulous preparation is immediately apparent".

"Those who find Evgeny Mravinsky too heroic and Bernard Haitink too liberal will find Wigglesworth the ideal compsomise. He is aided by BIS's state-of-the-art sound".

"Vurdering: Editor's choice" - "Nelsons is spry and precisioned and his insistence on super-keen rhythm pays off big-time ... The Fifth Symphony is quite marvellous ... and like the Tenth should dominate the catalogue for a long time to come ... To say that it brings the house down is something of an understatement".

"Not everything on these two discs may be on quite the same level of unremitting intensity and insight as Andris Nelsons's first Shostakovich on CD ... But this Eighth goes even further ... The sheer expressive beauty of the string playing, the constant surprises ... represent a tonal sophistication ... Plenty of character, too, in extracts from the first set of Hamlet incidental music ... But hear the Eighth at any cost".

"Gergiev makes much of the Haydnesque deftness of the outer movements [of the Ninth] ... Better yet, and more shocking, is the arrival of the Red Army Band in the coda of the finale, transforming the polka into a goose-stepping march. Gergiev gives that a weighty and sinister pomp. Shostakovich's scepticism could hardly be writ larger ... Kavakos plays it with controlled intensity".
