Recordings by W L Hoffmann on Shostakovich works

W L Hoffmann presents significant Shostakovich works including Symphony No 13 Babi Yar with Moscow Philharmonic and Kondrashin, Symphony No 15, and Moscow Radio Symphony under Maxim Shostakovich. Melodiya and HMV releases accompany poems by Yevtushenko. The third symphony’s troubled post 1962 reception stemmed from its anti Nazi massacre theme at Babi Yar near Kiev.

Unusual but listenable for your plea sure review of Roxy Music

A reader describes Roxy Music and Bryan Ferry amid speculation about their second album. The critique notes synthesizer work and Enos influence, with Side 2 described as slow creeping, eerie, and increasingly intense before a fade into heavy sound. The piece contrasts experimental textures with pulsing guitar and sax up front. The reviewer hints at a mix of danger and cleverness in the music but remains unsure.
