how can one find all but one movement of a recording? that is saying nothing against Kronos, i have almost their complete discography standing here, but i like Emerson also very much and would have liked to directly compare the two... and this is one of the best movements ever written...sad

Whoever said Kronos > Emerson regarding performances of Shostakovitch was absolutely correct. I say this after having only grudgingly listened to both (I usually find Kronos a little too "out there" for my tastes), but in this case there is no contest.

This is a wonderful movement.
I love Shostakovitch's dark, sad, and aggressive styling.
Just wondering. About the Kronos Quartet.
What do you mean by "out there"?
I've heard them with Clint Mansell and the Requiem for a Dream sound track, then again who hasn't and thought that was amazing.

Ok, for all the people who were asking, I asked the uploader and he/she said that this IS the Kronos Quartet's performance, and they uploaded this one because they couldn't find the Emerson recording of this movement. So there you go. =)
Be happy! Shostakovich is good for you. =D
