  • The chimes (tubular bells) starting around 1:00:16 linger on after the symphony as if the audience should be reeling as if from a bomb blast of large-scale human emotion stretched across a great expanse of land over the course of seasons of time, the ear ringing after a concussion. I see some foreshadowing of this final effect in the lingering cymbal (or gong?) at 54:10. That poor confused person clapping as the chimes resonate and die wasn't listening at all well! :(

  • 28:00 dig that crazy rhythm

  • Every time I hear those last few minutes (and I've listened to this piece probably 40 times by now,) I get a shiver down my spine and start twitching. Such a wonderful piece, and an excellent interpretation.

  • OMG.

  • Absolutely Incredible Music! I went to listen to the BBC Philhamonic play this and i was inspired!

  • Great work , fine performance ! !

  • I'm looking for this version on internet to buy it, but i can't find it...Is it possible to get a link?

    Thank you

  • Great, great Shostakovich thank you so much for bringing this 11th Symphony to humanity.

    Also the performance is great.

  • Great Litton and his Minnesota Orchestra !! Thank you for this choice

  • Intensely beautiful music. Thank you for posting it. Somebody used the first movement as music for a video of an Art Nouveau bust that was made in 1900 in Hungary. You can see and hear it by searching for Zsolnay Luna.
