Description: | Music shaped under the influence of twentieth-century modernist movements, conducted by one whose musical decisions have the authority of someone who directly embodies the legacy of the composer. - BOURNEMOUTH S.O./KIRILL KARABITSWith their second album on Chandos, the highly lauded team of the Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra and it's Chief Conductor, Kirill Karabits, presents another volume in their surround-sound series 'Voices from the East'. This is music very close to the heart of the native Ukrainian Karabits: Boris Lyatoshynsky taught orchestration to his father, Ivan Karabits. Having absorbed the music of the Russian tradition and late-nineteenth-century Western European romanticism, Lyatoshynsky shaped his personal voice under the influence of twentieth-century modernist movements such as expressionism, as well as Ukrainian folk music, becoming a self-professed national composer. The premiere of Symphony No. 3 could not be given until Lyatoshynsky had rewritten the finale to accord with Communist Party requirements, the original movement having met with objections from the Soviet authorities. On this recording the symphony is heard as originally conceived. The symphonic ballad Grazhyna was written to mark the centenary of the death of Poland's greatest poet, Adam Mickiewicz (1798-1855). Both works are confidently played by the BSO under a conductor whose musical decisions have the authority of one who directly embodies the legacy of the composer."Sinfonie 3, op.50 / Grazhyna op.58" is a remarkable SACD+CD release by Chandos Records, featuring the Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra under the baton of Kirill Karabits. This album presents two significant orchestral works by Polish composer Karol Szymanowski: his powerful Third Symphony and the evocative symphonic poem "Grazhyna." The combination of SACD and CD formats ensures audiophiles can enjoy these masterpieces in stunning clarity and depth. Kirill Karabits, renowned for his insightful interpretations and dynamic leadership as Principal Conductor of the Bournemouth SO since 2009, has elevated the orchestra to international acclaim with award-winning recordings and acclaimed tours worldwide. Chandos Records stands out as one of Britain's leading classical music labels, celebrated for its commitment to high-quality sound production and an extensive catalogue that champions both well-known composers and lesser-heard gems. |
