It is in sound I expected this reissue with caution. I had actually been critical with the edition in the same collection of Shostakovich concertos; I'll be here a lot more positive.
Aesthetics is changed from the 2008 EMI reissue recordings of violinist. There are probably a little less bass, I see a little more reverb Praga but assures us not to have added. For me the progress at the level of aggressiveness and some acidity that occur during the tutti. Here it goes with more flexibility.
I certainly do not say that the sound is transfigured, but auditory comfort is improved.
So buy unconditionally
