Shchedrin: Concerto Cantabile / Stravinsky: Violin Concerto in D / Tchaikovsky: Serenade melancholique, Op. 26»rank: 223305from: Angel Records
0ur opinion: :Back in 1994, Teldec struck gold when it teamed the very young Russian violinist Maxim Vengerov with conductor Mstislav Rostropovich and the London Symphony in a recording of Prokofiev's and Shostakovich's first violin concertos. The label followed that a couple of years later with the same performers doing the same composers' second violin concertos. Then, for some reason, Teldec seems to have walked away from its claim on their remarkable collaboration. With this release, EMl has come up with--what else?--more gold. lt's particularly exciting because the Shchedrin ...

Stravinsky:Symphony of Psalms/Mass/Canticum Sacrum»rank: 191637from: Hyperion UK
0ur opinion: :Here's a Symphony of Psalms that successfully captures the spirit and letter of the work--reverence, jubilation, and celebration, as well as specifics of orchestral color and texture. Boys' voices--supposedly Stravinsky's original choice--contribute their share to the bright choral timbre, an effect that works very well. We also get first-rate performances of the Mass and the rarely recorded Canticum sacrum. --David Vernier
