Digital Booklet
|
"... Pletnev and his superb RNO offer a feast of orchestral music of Rimsky-Korsakov ... an outstanding release!"
- ClassicalCDReview.com
"Five Stars. An impressive showcase of some of the lesser known examples of the symphonic orchestration skills of one of its masters. What an improvement PentaTone’s hi-res makes ..."
- Audiophile Audition
"Pletnev and his virtuoso orchestra make a charming sound picture of the Dance of the Birds, woodwind all a-twitter and leap with plenty of vigour into the single most popular item, the Dance of the Clowns ... evocatively played and given a suitably spacious recording."
- Gramophone
Conductor Mikhail Pletnev deserves plenty of the credit for the success of this album as he leads the Russian National Orchestra on these suites, some familiar and some less familiar, by Rimsky-Korsakov. Pletnev's sensitive and insightful interpretations have been singled out in several reviews as a vital ingredient of this interesting and revealing album.
