About

A new recording of key Russian Romantic repertoire.

Borodin’s
symphonies exude lyricism and panache. The First Symphony took five years to complete but is a work of seamless melodic invention owing something to Mendelssohn, whose influence infuses it with delicious lightness.

The Second Symphony is a more explicitly Russian work, pulsing with festive and march-like elements, high-spirited and boldly nationalistic. The Third Symphony was left incomplete, and was reconstructed and orchestrated by Glazunov with considerable facility and imagination.
