Or said another way, the No. 13 that is part of this Box set?
Not the original, but apparently recorded in the late 60's w/ Artur Eizen.
This box set is rather pricey on AMAZON ) available on both QOBUZ and TIDAL
Original is available on SACD for a bit less than the version you mentioned. See link below:

linked is mono, if that matters (the Russian Disc version is stereo). But I could be wrong.

Claims to be a stereo DSD and the lower right hand corner shows distribution as hamonia mindi, which is generally a good sign, as is the text that seems to describe it as the live recording with the original text.
DSD to boot!
Again, we'll see. Price ain't that bad.
Worse is the fact that my wife likes Shostakovich about as much as Chris does! :-)
about any of it.
Bottom left says, "stereo and mono bi-channel".
Amazon automated pricing does some really goofy things.Mark in NC

Obviously the age of this recording tells you this was an analog recording (not DSD either!). I have seen a few reviews of these Praga reissues. Their source material is unknown, and they have reissues of stuff that appeared before on Columbia, Melodiya, Supraphon, and others. None of the reviewers have said, "Wow! This sounds so much better than other reissues of this performance!"
"Wow, this is a whole lot cheaper than the original..."
Or at least a new copy of the one MWE linked to above.
A new copy of the SACD version was only about $15 plus $3.99 shipping.
We'll soon know if it's any good.
