BOX set
Firma Melodiya presents a boxed set titled “International Tchaikovsky Competition. Phonographic Documents (1958-1986)”.
The first ever Soviet music tournament instantly became one of the world’s most prestigious competitions. The piano jury was chaired by Emil Gilels for many years, while David Oistrakh and Mstislav Rostropovich headed the violin and cello juries, respectively. Alexander Sveshnikov, an outstanding choirmaster and chancellor of the Moscow Conservatory, was a chairman of the vocal jury. For the fifty years of its existence, the Tchaikovsky Competition discovered numerous distinguished performers such as Van Cliburn, Vladimir Ashkenasi, Grigory Sokolov, Eliso Virsaladze, John Lill, Michail Pletnev, Viktor Tretiakov, Gidon Kremer, Vladimir Spivakov, Oleg Kagan, Natalia Gutman, Elena Obraztsova, Maria Gulegina, Vladimir Atlantov, Yevgeny Nesterenko and Paata Burchuladze to name but a few. The set captures the brightest moments of eight Tchaikovsky Competitions in all categories. The recordings, including a number of never-before-released ones, were made immediately during the competition auditions
and at the prize-winners’ recitals. The release is dedicated to the 175th anniversary of the great Russian composer. |

Opera in three acts - Libretto by Luigi Illica, Giuseppe Giacosa
One of the most popular operas of the world repertoire, Tosca was finished in the last year of the 19th century. It was based on the French playwright Victorien Sardou’s drama written for Sarah Bernhardt. The premiere of the opera that took place in 1900 in Rome was not accepted with much enthusiasm, and only the performance at La Scala under Arturo Toscanini became a true triumph. The story of singer Floria Tosca and her beloved painter Mario Cavaradossi who fell victim to bloody despot Baron Scarpia on the background of the revolutionary events in Italy of the early 19th century is still able to move to the innermost of one’s heart as the heat of dramatic fervour is masterfully captured in the music. Numerous audio and video recordings of the opera featuring the world’s best singers and conductors were made in the previous century.
This recording was realized by the USSR Bolshoi Theatre in 1974. The celebrated internationally recognized soloists of the opera company of the 1970s Tamara Milashkina, Vladimir Atlantov, Yuri Mazurok and others perform the opera in the original language under the prominent conductor Mark Ermler.

In 1849, the translator, poet and playwright Lev Mey (1822-1862) wrote a drama The Tsar’s Bride based on one of the passages from the era of Ivan the Terrible’s reign. In 1868, Mily Balakirev drew Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov’s attention to Mey’s work. However, the composer set to creating an opera based on the plot of The Tsar’s Bride only thirty years later. He began his work in February 1898 and completed it in ten months. Almost without changing Mey’s plot, Rimsky-Korsakov enhanced the dramatic qualities of The Tsar’s Bride with his musical means. The opera was premiered in the autumn of 1899 at a Moscow theatre of the industrialist and patron Savva Mamontov with Mikhail Ippolitov-Ivanov being the conductor. The Tsar’s Bride, a sample of realistic drama, is one of the most popular works for musical theatre at the present time. The performance of 1973 presented on these CDs brought together great artists of Russian stage - Evgeny Nesterenko, Galina Vishnevskaya, Vladimir Atlantov, Irina Arkhipova and others. |

Firma Melodiya presents a complete collection of romances and songs by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky timed to the great Russian composer’s 175th anniversary.
“As a matter of fact, poetry and music are so close to each other,” Tchaikovsky wrote to Nadezhda von Meck. Chamber vocal music has a very special place
in the extensive legacy of the composer who was a symphonist of genius, a creator of operatic and ballet masterpieces, and a prominent master of the concerto genre. It accompanied Tchaikovsky throughout his artistic life being his “lyrical diary” and at the same time an creative laboratory where he sought for and found images for his very different works. The 17-year-old student of the Imperial School of Jurisprudence started off his composing career with
timid attempts to set poetic texts to music. In the romances of Op. 6, the composer appears as a mature master, while the numerous vocal pieces of the 1870s anticipate the artistic imagery and musical drama of Eugene Onegin. Op. 73, the composer’s last chamber vocal work, which immediately preceded the writing of the Sixth Symphony (Pathétique), is surprisingly similar to the symphony in terms of images and emotions. The set features all of the composer’s 103 romances for voice and piano, including rare cycles such as 16
Songs for Children, Op. 54, and 6 romances after French poets, Op. 65. The recordings were made on Firma Melodiya in the 1960s to 1980s as part of
a grandiose project of complete recorded collection of Tchaikovsky’s works. It involved the talents of the best Soviet vocalists such as Zara Dolukhanova, Irina
Arkhipova, Elena Obraztsova, Tamara Milashkina, Sergei Lemeshev, Ivan Petrov, Yuri Mazurok, Muslim Magomaev and other singers/soloists of the USSR Bolshoi Theatre and All-Union Radio. |
