Ballets Editorial Review
**** Dmitri Shostakovich's "The Golden Age Complete Ballet," conducted by Gennady Rozhdestvensky, presents a rich tapestry of classical music that captures both the whimsical and complex spirit of the Russian composer. This recording is noted for being a full-premiere interpretation of the ballet, allowing listeners to experience the depth of Shostakovich's work, which often surpasses the expectations set by the popular suite derived from the ballet. Reviewers highlight the music’s symphonic quality, characterized by coherence and musical sense. Many express their delight in the entire two-hour performance, remarking on the variation and vivaciousness present in pieces like the manic "Sports Contest" and the wild "Tap Dance." It showcases a contrast between Soviet and bourgeois cultural influences, embodied through Shostakovich's playful yet penetrating orchestration that includes unusual instruments, enhancing its allure. While the performance is met with praise for its precision and hidden complexities, there are remarks that indicate it might lack a certain 'spark' or intensity that some listeners might anticipate. Nonetheless, many believe that the presentation excels as a masterwork within a well-devised structure. Listeners who enjoy quirky classical music will find immense value in this recording, recognizing its significance and artistry in reflecting Shostakovich's musical journey. The Consensus is clear: for those ready to fully embrace the experience, this complete version is a worthwhile investment that broadens a listener's understanding of one of Shostakovich's pivotal works. **
