This is one of several 6th in my collection, including the Mravinsky on Blu-ray Audio
Petrenko is up there with the best & very well recorded, but the Mravinsky is a white hot, edge or your seat performance (the 4th & 5th too), not to be missed.
Good news for Tchaikovsky fans, Reference Recordings will soon release the Manfred Honeck/Pittsburgh Symphony 4th.
Qobuz has the 4th,5th,and 6th all from the Deutsche Grammophon originals on one recording according to the Digital Booklet that comes with it. 24/96 resolution. For those so inclined.
Properr Russian music, nice tunes, populist, his best chamber piece. Plus great cover art by Malevich, one of the finest of the Soviet Realists.
Thanks, I’ll put it in the queue. I have a vague memory of having listened to it but it’s not in my notes so not sure if it’s the recording I heard.
You’ll have to pay money for the Hyperion recording. I’m on to this, one more of a dialectic between piano and strings. Perhaps a bit too fierce.
I also have the DG Originals CD Set. Don’t Qobuz but nice to know that it’s there.
Do not listen to the Argerich. Made me want to jump in a trench.
Moved on to this sonata. It’s not a good piece of music, but a great pianist, preferably Russian, can raise it to considerable heights.
That includes Gilels of course, but I heard Igor Levit play it in a program before the Diabelli Variations, his recording of which established his international reputation. It was magnificent and it would be great if he would record it. The review is here:
I have those in a boxed LP set from way back. During the '70s a record club with the pretentious and not very accurate name “The International Preview Society” sold classical albums that were resourced old recordings from DGG, Philips and others. They took the Mravinsky/Leningrad set and put them in a new box. I got one, and have always loved both the performance and recording. As I mention in another post, it remains my touchstone when evaluating other’s versions.
NIce to have the lp.
After the BBC Symphony and Jack Liebeck recorded in the old (but superb) Maida Vale studios, here’s the BBC Philharmonic with a fabulous Shost 11 recorded at the newish Media City studio in Manchester.
There’s a dual layer SACD for all you audiophiles. The problem with such things, like the Liverpool Phil’s Shost 2/15 under Petrenko (on Naxos), is that the quiet bits are very quiet and you do sometimes have to reach for the volume control.
Someone recently impugned Naxos as budget of middling quality. Listen to the Petrenko and eat words.
A fine reading and excellent surround recording.
A bargain.
I bought this one a long time ago and it cost a lot more. I already had quite a few on Sony CD and have a few vinyl.
When they remastered did they remove the vocals?
Here they are, all WAV rips in Roon and compiled as an 80-disc box set. Roon is very clever with classical sets.
Remastered from the original analogue tapes using state-of-the-art Direct Stream Digital (DSD) mastering technology. Humming sounds better than ever.
An excellent “re-performance” on the Zenph system in DSD.
Humming not re-performed. 
I have the Zenph SACD is this recording. Also the terrific Art Tatum, “Piano Starts Here: Live at The Shrine”
There’s a nice selection Medicitv classical music videos available free for Amazon Prime members, including several of of the Abbado/Lucerne Festival Orchestra Mahler symphonies.
There’s also a RCO Mahler Festival online on YouTube
