"All these many scenes return in a finale of fast flowing change, the ending one of emotional turmoil. It may not rank with the symphonies of Shostakovich, but this is a most important Russian-generated twentieth-century score. The playing of the Siberian orchestra under their conductor, Vladimir Lande, is quite stunning and offers one of the most persuasive discs of Weinberg I have yet encountered, the release coming as part of Lande’s projected seventeen disc series of music by Weinberg. The sound quality has excellent detail, dynamic range and impact. I hope Naxos will frequently revisit the orchestra."
