Music reviews of Shostakovich: Cello Concertos 1 & 2
Music Review: Wonderful and an absolute bargain
Rating: 5 Stars
This is one of the best performances/recordings of the two 'cello concerti of Shostakovich - a joy (? - well, at least, wonderful melancholy) to which to listen. At this price, it is a steal.
Description of Shostakovich: Cello Concertos 1 & 2
These central works of cello literature are interpreted here by a master - Kyrill Rodin was awarded not only First Prize, but also Gold Medal, at the 1986 Tchaikovsky Competition in Moscow. Since then, Rodin has been one of the most sought-after soloists in Russia, the former Soviet states, and many other European countries. The Russian Philharmonic Orchestra was founded by Igor Oistrakh, Yuri Temirkanov and a union of concert workers. Many famous conductors have worked with the orchestra, including Svetlanov, Rozhdestvensky, Kondrashin, Kitaenko and Fedoseyev. They have made over 100 CDs. In 1959, soon after the completion of the Symphony No. 11, Shostakovich wrote his Cello Concerto No. 1 in E-flat major Op. 107; he dedicated it to Mstislav Rostropovich, who premiered the work. The Cello Concerto No. 2 in G major Op. 126 is also dedicated to Rostropovich. The composer created it between two vocal soloist/choral symphonies while seeking rejuvenation in a sanatorium in Yalta in 1966.General CDs
