"It certainly whets the appetite for more music by this composer, and it's splendidly played here. The sonics are typically vivid, with rich bass, a bright top, and plenty of impact from the winds and heavy brass. Horns and cymbals could have been slightly more present, however. Not a perfect release, then, but a very good one nonetheless".

"Andris Nelsons startet wohl zu einem Zyklus - zeigt ein paar Schwächen, aber insgesamt ... Ich rate zu! auch wenn Andris Nelsons noch zeigen muss, ob er sich aus dem langen Schatten seiner Idole [Karajan] wirklich heraus traut oder nicht".

"Don't press play without checking the volume levels first: Andris Nelsons and the Boston Symphony Orchestra begin their new Shostakovich series with the Passacaglia from the opera Lady Macbeth of Mtsensk, and its first chord is genuinely cataclysmic ... It at once recalibrates your ears and sets the tone for the ensuing performance of the 10th Symphony".

"This performance goes right to the top. Not since the amazing mono Ancerl recording has there been a version of this work of such intensity, such expressive urgency ... It's all captured in gloriously vivid, present sonics by the Naxos engineers".

"The tension that results is unsettling and may be a bit puzzling, especially to an audience unfamiliar with Shostakovich's mercurial changes of style and mood, but Jansons' interpretation is straightforward and direct, so possible meanings are left to the listener. RCO Live's super audio sound captures everything, so even the subtlest nuances are fully audible".

"I place this compelling live account of the Tenth from Jansons up there with the finest recordings. Janson's Bavaria players are on splendid form, displaying their qualities of character and controlled power combined with precision and unity. It is hard to fault the effectiveness of the numerous solo sections notably the woodwind and horns".

"Man behøver ikke kende det store til Sjostakovitjs kodesprog for at høre, at hans 10. Symfoni er en barsk omgang. Slet ikke, når Nelsons har så godt styr på spændingskurverne i den voldsomme musik, som det er tilfældet her. Den orkestrale tonestorm er imidlertid så velordnet og kultiveret, at biddet af og til bliver lidt tandløst".

"Välspelat och vackert. Men lyckas man förmedla Sjostakovitjs visioner? Nej, långt ifrån. Främför allt saknas det spänning och drama. Vill man ha den ryska mästaren som bakgrundsmusik så är denna cd perfekt men den förmedlar inte verkets dynamiska omfång alls".

"If you want to experience a Shostakovich Ten as beautiful sound, this is the recording for you, but it's not by any means the full story".

"Paavo Järvi's approach adds a few expressive nudges of its own leading up to a clearly balanced and spring-heeled first-movement development ... slightly lightweight quality of Cincinatti's disciplined orchestra".

"Nelsons strukturiert das Bostoner Orchester vortrefflich ... Das klingt wahrhaft eindringlich, gross, unmittelbar, aber nie nach billigem Effekt-Kino. Die vielen Wechsel, die klugen Staffelungen im Finale, gelingen in aller Drastik, bissig, kernig, mit genügend Puste bis zu den einzelnen Gipfeln".

"Vurdering: BBC music orchestral choice" - "A peerless Shostakovich Tenth ... The pacing, the atmosphere, the expressive space for stricken solos and the sheer electric charge of the gallops are up there with the best".

"Recording of the month: If you want a testimony to what it was we lost when Mariss Jansons died, listen to this disc. In big symphonic works Jansons always had a flair for bringing out both the long singing line and the key details, but this is exceptional ... What I'm left with is a sense of wonder, and even a kind of joy at the way both Shostakovich and Jansons are able to express and contain such dark, troubling emotions".

"You expect quality from this source - and you get it here, in abundance ... Ultimately it's all a matter of taste, of course, but there is such a thing as too good in this music where technique and finish should never trump the unvarnished truth".

"What glorious sounds those Concertgebouw strings produce: warmth and richness in abundance, but also violent in attack ... Janspns ensures scrupulous observance of Shostakovich's markings ... Jansons and the Concertgebouw would be very close to snatching the crown were it not for the remarkable ongoing cycle from Vasily Petrenko and the Royal Liverpool Orchestra ... Nevertheless, Jansons and the Royal Concertgebouw offer a distinguished reading which shouldn't be dismissed ligthly".

"Vurdering: Recording of the month - Vurdering: Editor's choice" - "Powerful and beautifully crafted, this recording - the first from the relationship between DG and the Boston Symphony under Nelsons - is a hugely impressive sign of just what this ensemble/maestro partnership may go on to achieve".

"It is difficult to imagine anyone happy with one of the late Mariss Jansons's previous recordings (from Philadelphia, 6/95, and Amsterdam, 8/13) feeling compelled to update their collection, or any listener previously unpersuaded by the conductor's pursuit of beauty above all suddenly experiencing a road-to-Damascus moment where the Tenth Symphony is concerned".
