Shostakovich: Symphony No. 6 (Boston SO, Nelsons), from the DG Complete Recordings box which was on the doorstep, where it had been dumped by Amazon Logistics, when I got home from work this evening. This is, I hope one of the shortest disc in the box. Just 33 minutes and 15 seconds in total! I note that this DSCH 6 comes from live performances given in April and May of last year. It would not be a contender for my first choice in this work.
