OT: anyone know what's coming next from Andris Nelsons (Bruckner and/or Shosty)?
akiralx:
Bruckner 2 may be my favourite - if you don't know it I highly recommend the inexpensive Arte Nova recording with Wakasugi conducting the Saarbrucken Radio SO.
ChrisH:
Here is an interesting read on the recording process of the BSO Shosty recordings:

A 15th with the BSO could be really good. I don't really care about S12, 13 or 14 (13 is OK). I know I should, but I just don't. I think the 15th was a huge breakthrough. I certainly don't care about either S2 or S3 either. It's funny they haven't addressed S4 yet. It's so typical of DG these days to just give up.
ChrisH:
Oddly enough, just last night I listened to S2&3. Now, I'm not too crazy about a lot of S's works, but I felt that these 2 symphonies are very interesting as precursors to his later stuff. His experimentation was very interesting in how he used the percussion and brass, and even the nice clarinet trio in the 3rd. He seems to go much farther harmonically with these, too. However, this may not be the case as I'm not very fluent in theory. They sound more like Berg, than S.
I was listening to Kitajenko with Gurzenich.

Finally we get to hear more from Nelsons/Boston in Shostakovich. 1, 14, 15, and the chamber symphony all in one release coming out late June.

This makes me think the final release—whenever that will be—could end up being 2, 3, 12, and 13 as a double CD.
2, 3, AND 12 altogether? That’s bold.
