CD Reviews

An excellent recording, with a nod to Romanian literature
Russell Pittman | Takoma Park, MD USA | 10/26/1998
(4 out of 5 stars)

"This is beautiful music -- some of Vieru's best -- in exciting performances. Both pieces are recorded in their premier performances, the concerto in 1980 with the Russian soloists to whom the work is dedicated, the symphony in 1986 with the Romanian Radio Chorus and Radio Symphony Orchestra. The nice surprise of the symphony is that it is a setting for four poems by Romania's revered poet Mihai Eminescu. The interested listener may want to find translations of the poems -- three of them are in the Selected Works of Ion Creanga and Mihai Eminescu, which I see is available from Amazon.com -- to add an extra dimention to his/her enjoyment of this excellent recording."
