MomsMobley Posted December 4, 2015 Report Posted December 4, 2015 22 hours ago, David Ayers said: It's a whole other world! Gennadi worked UK often but I'm thrilled that integrale exists, long thinking RVW of all English symphonists could / should travel best. (Elgar and Walton also but with just two each & they largely consonant with dominant trends etc...) Much as I like some Bax, I'm not sure his symponies his best or worth a lot of international advocacy. His piano music, however-- and thanks to Michael Endres on Oehms-- http://arnoldbax.com/michael-endres-records-the-bax-piano-sonatas-on-oehms-classics-review-by-christopher-webber/ (No clips on youtube?) Endres' enterprise of course also highlights how pathetic the careers of Perahia, Uchida etc-- all the international megacorps dullards who-- with all the goddamn resources in the world-- will die without having proffered a single note of invidual distinction. Did just find this however, whoa! More Russian RVW-- And in Spain also-- Quote
David Ayers Posted December 4, 2015 Author Report Posted December 4, 2015 The Mariinsky play in the Tony Palmer RVW film, and he does feature on their programme from time to time, I've noticed. I haven't heard a Russian conductor do any RVW here, but Jurowski has done some, I do know. Seems likely that Rozdhestvensky is the only one to do a whole cycle in Russia - it's remarkable. Quote
