Khachaturian: Masquerade Suite; Kabalevsky: The Comedians / Kiril Kondrashin (2008)

Posted By: Benzok

Date: Oct. 2, 2010

This CD speaks more than any amount of words as to the tragic loss music suffered over the early death of conductor, Kiril Kondrashin. "The Masquerade Suite" and "The Comedians" in particular have incredible style and sweep. These pieces which have been for so long relegated to the status of pops concerts level become in Kondrashin's hands the decided masterpieces of colorful writing and wonderful orchestration that they actually are. I must go so far as to say that these interpretations are definitive. We like to think of all the technical advances we have made in the last decades, but the sonics of the original analog tapes make these pieces sound like they were recorded yesterday rather than 40 years ago. There is not a trace of compression or distortion. Volumes on a good stereo system can be put to earthquake level. The final movement of the Kabelevsky is a speaker buster with Kabelevsky's ample use of kettle drums for the grand finish. On the other side of the coin, there is Oscar Shumsky's incomparable violin playing in "The Masquerade Suite" with its heartfelt second movement's large violin solo.
This is a "must-have" CD.
We have absolutely magnificent performances of two masterpieces of orchestration from the mid-twentieth century Russian school, and to have the added bonus of Tchaikovsky and Rimsky-Korsokav thrown in makes one feel with this recording that one's cup runs over.– Amazon
