That label is IMP and the Shostakovich 10 is a remarkable performance.
There is also a fine Brahms cycle by him on that label, Mahler 4th,
Bruckner 4th and Shostakovich 5th.  All with the Halle when he was their
Chief Conductor.  I saw him live with them in a great Strauss Also Sprach.
He also records for Arte Nova and is nearly at the end of a very good
Bruckner cycle.
