Synopsis

Amazon.com

Rudolf Kempe was a great conductor of Romantic music, as his famous Richard Strauss recordings clearly demonstrate. He had real flair when it came to handling a big orchestra, and in this fine performance, he reveals both his customary excitement and his sense of architectural strength. The sound has become a bit dated, and for that reason the disc might best be recommended to fans of this conductor in particular. But it's fine music-making, no doubt about it. --David Hurwitz

CD Reviews

Slavic brilliance

J. TIMMERMAN | Lawson, NSW Australia | 02/17/2010

(5 out of 5 stars)

"A deep sombre Slavic mood imbues this fine recording from 1958. Add plenty of drama and power and the result is sensational. Orchestral playing is tight as it comes, and the music flows beautifully, all quite superb. The recording is very good indeed, with a concert hall acoustic, well done to Testament for a fine remastering. Very Russian, very compelling. Fill-ups, earlier recordings, are very sprightly and also have remarkably fine quality sound."
