¡Masquarade Suite & The Comedians[Limited Release]
¡Kiril Kondrashin (conductor) / RCA Victor Symphony Orchestra
Description
[Machine Translation] Kondrashin, who became known in the West as a Soviet conductor during the Cold War when he accompanied Cliburn when Cliburn won the first Tchaikovsky Competition, recorded this album during his visit to the United States. Kondrashin trained the RCA Victor Symphony Orchestra for the recording (a list of the orchestra members will be included in the booklet/ The soloist for "Italian Fantasy" was the virtuoso Oscar Shumsky), which was made up of members of the New York Philharmonic and other traditional orchestras and skilled free players, and brought out a sharp sound full of tension, which shows Kondrashin's outstanding skills as an orchestral builder and his ability to create a sound that is both impressive and challenging. This is a masterpiece that shows his great skill as an orchestra builder and his unique brilliance. Among Kondrashin's recordings, this is a masterpiece along with the complete symphonies by Shostakovich in the 1960s and various live recordings with the Concertgebouw Orchestra in his last years. The crisp and expansive sound recorded during a two-day session at Manhattan Center in New York City is known as one of the finest recordings in early stereo RCA Living Stereo. Original jacket design will be used. Remastered.
