Melodiya presents a unique album of violin sonatas of Edvard Grieg and Ludwig van Beethoven, and a duet for violin and piano of Franz Schubert performed by Kreisler and Rachmaninoff. The recordings were made in the 1928 in the United States.
It is probably difficult to think of another ensemble of the same scale where each of the partners is a great musician who has reached the pinnacle of perfection in his art and a composer with his own unique style.

Two pieces by Grieg played by the composer himself are a bonus.
Firma Melodiya presents recordings of piano compositions by Edvard Grieg.
Lyric Pieces is a genre which accompanied the Norwegian composer along nearly the entire creative path. Ten books composed within 1870-1900 are a sort of the composer’s creative diary which fixed his impressions, genre sketches and deep emotional experience. What we find here is dance pieces, landscapes of northern nature, fantastic images and lyrical reflection.
Four books of Grieg’s Lyric Pieces are performed by Alexander Goldenweiser. A brilliant pianist, professor of the Moscow Conservatory where he taught for over fifty years, editor of piano literature, he is rightfully considered one of the founders of the Russian piano school of the 20th century. A pupil of Alexander Siloti, who in his turn studied under Franz Liszt, and Sergey Taneyev, one of Tchaikovsky’s students, he was closely acquainted with Leo Tolstoy, Sergey Rachmaninoff, Alexander Scriabin and Nikolai Metner. Goldeweiser’s performance combined the achievements of Russian and European romantic pianism with novelty piano art of the 20th century. Goldeweiser’s style was characteristic for its filigree, lyrical spirituality and utmost loyalty to an author’s text.
E. Grieg:
Book I, Op. 12
Book III, Op. 43
Book IV, Op. 47
Book VIII, Op. 65

Firma Melodiya presents a boxed set dedicated to the 75th anniversary of one of the outstanding contemporary Russian conductors, Dmitri Kitayenko.
“Today he can be undoubtedly considered one of the five or six best conductors of the world. This phenomenon is out of the ordinary”, Herbert von Karajan wrote about Kitayenko after the young Soviet conductor gave a brilliant performance at the international competition in Vienna, receiving the second prize and winning the hearts of the Viennese audience and media. Evgeny Svetlanov also greeted his younger colleague on the pages of the Soviet press as a talented and promising conductor.
A graduate of the Leningrad Conservatory who also completed a postgraduate course at the Moscow Conservatory and a training course at the Vienna Academy of Music, Dmitri Kitayenko had a brilliant start to his conducting career. From 1976 to 1990 he headed the Academic Symphony Orchestra of the Moscow Philharmonic Society. Under his leadership the celebrated orchestra substantially expanded its repertoire and actively toured.
During recent decades, the conductor worked with the orchestras of Western Europe, Japan, South Korea and the United States and regularly recorded.
This 6 CD set includes recordings made by Dmitri Kitayenko in the studio and in the concert hall between 1975 and 1987 with the orchestra of the Moscow Philharmonic Society and the USSR State Academic Symphony Orchestra. The repertoire included showcases the conductor’s stylistic diversity and highest mastery.
These recordings will be of interest to those who remembers Kitayenko’s performances of the past years and to a new generation of listeners as well.
