Recommended Shostakovich?


I recently heard a performance of the Shostakovich Concerto for Piano, Trumpet and Strings for the first time and I have decided I need to discover more of his music. I'd appreciate any recommendations for memorable pieces, performances and sonics, including good box sets. Thanks to all.

I am a fan of his 24 preludes and fugues by Gilels, his architecture is amazing, he never did a complete set but you can often find a few here and there.
the same goes for Richter. Amazingly they seemed to prefer to do ones the other didn't. Between them they almost have a complete set.
