"... this is excellent ... there are none I know that give this much pleasure overall …"
- Fanfare
"Recording of the Year ... the Naxos sound is actually very good, with a broad, deep, soundstage ... the RLPO certainly play their hearts out ..."
- MusicWeb International
"Four Stars ... (Petrenko) keeps an extremely tight grip on proceedings ... The Royal Liverpool Philharmonic delivers an incisive and strongly committed performance with splendid and expressive solos from the flute, cor anglais and trumpet ..."
- BBC Music Magazine
Charismatic young conductor Vasily Petrenko launches his Shostakovich symphonies series with this performance of Symphony No. 11, a highly charged depiction of the ‘Bloody Sunday’ massacre of over 200 peaceful demonstrators by Czarist soldiers outside the Winter Palace in St Petersburg in 1905. Scored for a sizeable orchestra of triple woodwind, four horns, three each of trumpets and trombones, tuba, timpani, percussion, celesta, harps and strings, the symphony makes extensive use of revolutionary songs as thematic elements.
