Descripción del producto Stravinskys ballet music contains some of the composers most dazzling inspirations, and his work with Diaghilevs Ballets Russes brought him to international attention before the first world war. But it was through his collaborations with Diaghilevs protege George Balanchine that Stravinsky evolved the individual neoclassical style of his own that is arguably his greatest contribution to the musical language of the twentieth century. Contemporary audiences were thrilled by the innovative nature of these works. Walter Terry wrote in the Herald Tribune at the premiere of Agon that it was quite possibly the most brilliant ballet creation of our day
true, Agon is not warm, not overtly human, but its very coolness is refreshing and it generates excitement because it totally ignores human foibles, dramatic situation, and concentrates wholly on the miracle of the dancing body. Five of Stravinskys ballets have been recorded on two discs (the second to be released in January) by the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra under maestro Ilan Volkov. Volkovs mastery of a range of Russian music is well-represented on Hyperion and has been greatly acclaimed on the concert platform. Opinión Equally compelling is the incisive and imaginative orchestral accompaniment from Volkov and the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra, captured here in outstandingly clear-recorded sound' --BBC Music Magazine 'The First Violin Concerto reveals a composer deeply influenced by the expressionism of early Schoenberg, Scriabin and Berg, but also one who has found his own voice. The violinist Alina Ibragimova gives an impassioned performance with the ripe-sounding BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra under Volkov. She and they are equally committed in the Second Concerto, composed in 1936, but unperformed until this very recording an unequivocally Romantic work' --The Times 'Ibragimova has the bravura technique and coloristic range … she posses an elegance of tone … Volkov brings out all the polyphonic strands with ease and leads a performance of striking color, power, and discipline. More eloquent advocates for Roslavets abilities would be hard to imagine' --Fanfare, USA
