Tchaikovsky: Symphonies Nos. 4, 5 & 6 Mravinsky Leningrad Philharmonic Orchestra SKU: 4798123 Barcode: 028947981237 60.00 £60.00 Genre: Classical Label: Deutsche Grammophon Released Date: 16th February 2018 Buying Format: 3LP Out of stock Back Order Add to your Wishlist Description Product Info Conductor Yevgeny Mravinsky leads the Leningrad Philharmonic Orchestra in gripping performances of Peter Ilyich Tchaikovsky’s Symphony No. 4 In F Minor, Op.36, Symphony No. 5 In E Minor, Op.64 and Symphony No. 6 In B Minor, Op.74 “Pathétique”. These versions of Tchaikovsky’s Symphonies Nos. 4-6, are regarded as definitive performances today. They’re presented here in a 3LP box set, with audio based on the original tapes and featuring copies of the original recording journals. The box cover is adapted from the original release and each symphony is housed in a separate sleeve, reprinted from a 1960s pressing, with lacquers cut at Emil Berliner. “At the height of the Cold War, the Leningrad Philharmonic Orchestra under its legendary principal conductor Evgeny Mravinsky visited Britain in September 1960, giving sensational concerts in Edinburgh and London which drew ecstatic responses from both press and public. Since this virtuoso orchestra was then poorly represented in Western record catalogues, Deutsche Grammophon’s engineers astutely seized the opportunity to capture their playing in far superior sound to anything that could be produced by their Soviet counterparts. Among the most notable sessions taped in Wembley Town Hall was Mravinsky’s blazingly urgent account of Tchaikovsky’s Fourth Symphony. “Ever the perfectionist, the conductor was so pleased with the quality of this recording that two months later he and the orchestra agreed to record the last two symphonies for DG, this time in Vienna’s Musikverein. Initially released on three separate stereo LPs, these Tchaikovsky performances convey a highly-strung raw energy that remains undimmed up to the present day. The Finale of No. 5, delivered at a manically swift pace, is one of high points, guaranteed to take your breath away.” – BBC Music Magazine Musicians: Peter Ilyich Tchaikovsky, composer Yevgeny Mravinsky, conductor Leningrad Philharmonic Orchestra Artist Mravinsky Leningrad Philharmonic Orchestra Genre Classical Label Deutsche Grammophon Buying Options 3LP Format 3LP Condition New Country United Kingdom Track Listings Symphony No. 4 In F Minor, Op. 36: 1.
