To paraphrase Gramophone magazine, Semyon Bychkov “had big competition in the Shostakovich stakes” during the composer’s centenary year, but “he smashes past them brilliantly” (Editor’s Choice, Symphony No. 11, AV 2062). Further superlatives poured forth for Bychkov’s Shostakovich series Avie, and the sales followed. Two decades in to his Music Directorship of the WDR Sinfonieorchester Köln, Semyon Bychkov has enjoyed an enormously fruitful relationship with the celebrated ensemble, including seven critically acclaimed and award-winning recordings for Avie.
