Symphonic Poem 'Tamara'
Balakirev was an outstanding Russian musician, pianist, conductor and composer. In this collection, all his symphonic works are brought together in chronological sequence. The works include Overtures on the themes of three Russian songs, King Lear and Suite for Orchestra. All are performed by the USSR State Academic Symphony Orchestra, conducted by the outstanding Svetlanov.
“these recordings have a heartwarming vividness, an often biting immediacy, a lovely stylishness. The nationalist colouring is rich, the orientalism of the masterly symphonic poem Tamara, inspired by Lermontov, evocative...The music for King Lear...is thumping stuff.” The Sunday Times
