Drawing on work by José Bowen, Nicholas Cook, and Daniel Leech-Wilkinson, in this article I examine the performance history of the coda of Dmitry Shostakovich’s Fifth Symphony (1937) through statistical analysis of tempo in 152 recordings made between 1938 and 2019. I contextualize the trends that emerge from this data within the unique mix of errors, myths, and ideologies that have informed the performance and reception history of the symphony. Ultimately, I demonstrate how changing historical circumstances can affect the meanings of performances (as preserved in recordings) and how empirical methods can help reveal patterns among them.
