St Petersburg Philharmonic Orchestra: Prokofiev & Tchaikovsky
Liadov’s colourful miniatures are like musical Fabergé eggs. His talents are shown to the full in the ‘fantastic scherzo’ Kikimora, which vividly depicts a malevolent character from Russian folklore. Prokofiev’s second violin concerto was written in the same summer as the ballet Romeo and Juliet, and shares its drama and lyricism. The tender slow movement is one of the composer's most beautiful, while the finale is an exuberant dance. Tchaikovsky’s Sixth Symphony has probably been written
