Piano Quintet, Op. 57 & Piano Trio No. 2, Op. 67
Dmitri Shostakovich
Nash Ensemble
1990 Excellent recording quality.Gil's top choice for both works. They 'really dig into the music.' A 'perfect way to get to know both these works.'
Sviatoslav Richter / Borodin Quartet
early 80s Live recording, slightly noisy. (Piano Quintet only)A very powerful interpretation of the Piano Quintet.
Dmitri Shostakovich / Beethoven Quartet
1955 Fairly clear sound. (Piano Quintet only)A really powerful version of the Piano Quintet with the composer himself at the piano. A great, iconic chamber music recording.
