Firma Melodiya presents an album dedicated to the anniversaries of two great figures of Russian culture of the 20th century - Sergei Yesenin (1895-1925) and Georgy Sviridov (1915-1998).
“Once … I met a poet I knew, and he spent a long time reading Yesenin for me. That’s when Yesenin’s verses imprinted themselves on my soul. When I got back home, I could not fall
asleep… The music came suddenly. … That was how I wrote my first song to Yesenin’s text which later became a core song in my Poem to the Memory of Sergei Yesenin. The rest of the songs were composed during two weeks, all at once”. The premiere of the Poem to the Memory of Sergei Yesenin took place in 1956, in Moscow and was a new milestone in the composer’s career properly unveiling his original style and subtle feeling for poetry to the public. On the other hand, Sviridov’s Poem where the composer strived to render the poet’s spiritual side and passionate “love for the native land” became an actual rehabilitation of Yesenin’s poetry which had been covertly prohibited for a long time. Soon after completion of the vocal and symphonic Poem,
the composer came up with the cycle My Father Is a Peasant for tenor, baritone and piano where Yesenin’s images of Russian nature and scenes of country life were expressed by means
of chamber vocal lyric music.
Wooden Russia, a small cantata for tenor, men’s choir and orchestra was composed in 1964 and had an epigraph taken from Yesenin’s verses “Russia, my wooden Russia!”. The poet’s four
poems recreate an image of old patriarchal Russia while the last lines of the final movement herald its tragic demise.
Georgy Sviridov’s cantatas set to the poetry of Sergei Yesenin are performed by the Republican Academic Choir led by Alexander Yurlov and such luminaries of domestic conducting art as Yuri Temirkanov and Gennady Rozhdestvensky. The chamber cycle is sung by Alexei Maslennikov, an outstanding interpreter of Sviridov’s music who is accompanied by the author. |

Kolekce: Ruské romancePodkolekce: Vocal and Piano Firma Melodiya presents an album of classical Russian romances performed by Elena Zaremba.
One of the best Russian mezzo-sopranos of her generation, the singer began her career at the Bolshoi Theatre of the USSR in the mid-1980s. She conquered the world of opera, performing at some of the best theatre and festival venues with Russian, Italian, French and German repertoire and taking part in productions with prominent soloists and conductors. Only recently has she turned to chamber vocal music for the first time.
Russian romance is a special genre demanding not only professional skills. Stage and life experience, a subtle sensation of music and poetry, complete understanding between a singer and an accompanist - all this is needed to fully grasp this sphere of vocal art. Elena Zaremba’s performances with chamber programmes confirm that romance is not respite from the operatic stage for her but a new step in her vocal and dramatic career.
The album covers a hundred years of the evolution of Russian romance - Glinka, Dargomyzhsky, Rubinstein, Cui, Tchaikovsky, Rachmaninov, Medtner.
This programme was born through collaboration with Antonina Kadobnova, a remarkable pianist and concertmaster. A prize-winner of international competitions, she is very active as both a solo performer and accompanist, performing with well-known and young vocalists.
These recordings of Russian romances were made by Elena Zaremba and Antonina Kadobnova in 2011.

There is no doubt that the singer is one of today’s most brilliant vocalists of Russia and the world. A People’s Artist of Russia and the Republic of Abkhazia, a winner of the Golden Mask, Casta Diva, Triumph and Golden Orpheus awards, a welcome and longed-for guest of the greatest operatic and concert stages worldwide, she has performed at the Mariinsky Theatre in Saint Petersburg, the Wiener Staatsoper, the Bayerische Staatsoper in Munich, Covent Garden and Metropolitan Opera, the Théâtre du Châtelet and Théâtre des Champs Elysées in Paris, the Teatro dell’Opera di Roma in Rome and Teatro Comunale di Firenze in Florence, the Gran Teatre del Liceu in Barcelona, the Palau de les Arts Reina Sofia in Valencia, the NHK Hall in Tokyo, and took part in the closing ceremony of the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi.
However, chamber lyric singing, another side of the remarkable singer’s talent, has never been behind the scenes for her true fans. When Hibla Gerzmava was a contestant at the Tchaikovsky Competition, she received a special prize for her performance of Tchaikovsky’s Lullaby.
The singer’s new programme fully unveils a vivid and rich period of Russian music of the late 19th and the first quarter of the 20th centuries. Hibla Gerzmava is accompanied by pianist Yekaterian Ganelina, an Honoured Artist of the Republic of Abkhazia and an owner of many diplomas as the best concertmaster of prestigious international competitions, who has performed with the singer in Russia and abroad for many years now.
