- Music to make the heart race and the soul singI've owned this recording for some time, but I'd forgotten about it until I heard the second piano concerto used as background music on a documentary the other night. The melody from the second movement kept running through my head until I found it on my iPod and sat down to listen to it. I don't know why I ever let it fall out of regular rotation.

- what a deal!I'll add my 5 stars to those of the other reviewers. For a budget disc the production standards are very high. The orchestral strings are beautifully recorded and the solo work (piano but also trumpet in concerto no.1) is excellent. This CD is generously packed as well. A great deal.

- WHAT A PERFORMANCE!!!!!!Brilliance, clarity and beauty beyond measure,
is what we find in this renditions of the
Piano Concertos by Shostakovich(One of my favourite composers).
Leonskaja is ready and well prepeared
for the task. Equally brilliant are Hugh Wolff and the
St. Paul Chamber...The price is great too and the sound
is superb...
