Let's see if embedding works this way…

← The 4th movement is my favorite, but the entire thing is wonderful:

Oh, and by the way board admin, should I refrain from greentext aside from use as headers/list bullets?

My personal favourite conductor, and perhaps the last great Wagnerian. Not my favourite composer by a long chalk - that would be Purcell - but stuff from the romantic era tends to be a lot more "immediately" powerful, especially to the casual listener.

You don't need a knowledge of musical form and convention, historical context, or even the story behind this scene to enjoy it (unlike a lot of baroque stuff).

Such knowledge will of course elevate one's appreciation and enhance overall enjoyment, however.

Incredibly bouncy for its time, a drawn out exercise of the mandolin. Some might find this cacophonic but I think it's incredibly enjoyable.

I have that symphony on vinyl. I bought it for 50 cents at a flea market when I had no idea who Shostakovich was. Now hes my favorite composer.

I liked the opening. Openings for symphonies dont get much better than that.

Symphony 8 is my favorite though. Its terrifying and I love scary, tense orchestral pieces. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=52pn_d2bE3A

Great find; there was a BBC series on the English Renaissance and they played that.
