Shostakovich's Eighth Symphony is a powerful work and today stands not only as a chilling reminder of some of the darkest days of the 20th century, but also as a reminder of Shostakovich's acute musical imagination and craftsmanship. Gennady Rozhdestvensky conducts the London Philharmonic Orchestra in this live 1983 concert recording from Royal Festival Hall.
