Vox Audiophile Edition. Tchaikovsky composed his First Symphony just after graduating from the St Petersburg Conservatory. The Second Symphony presents an infectious cheerfulness and imaginative skill in orchestration. These Vox recordings by the Utah Symphony Orchestra conducted by Maurice Abravanel were originally released in 1974 as quadraphonic LPs (QSVBX 5129 and QSVBX 5131) and also appeared in 2001 as part of a complete Tchaikovsky symphonic edition on the Vox label (CD5X 3603). The Elite Recordings for Vox by legendary producers Marc Aubort and Joanna Nickrenz are considered by audiophiles to be among the finest sounding examples of orchestral recordings. Remastered in high definition from the original source tapes.
The CD "Sinfonie 6/Hamlet" by Maurice Abravanel and the Utah Symphony Orchestra, released by Vox, presents a compelling interpretation of two significant works: Tchaikovsky's dramatic Sixth Symphony ("Pathétique") and his evocative fantasy-overture "Hamlet". This recording captures the emotional depth and orchestral color that have made these pieces enduring favorites in the classical repertoire. The Utah Symphony Orchestra, under Abravanel?s baton, delivers performances marked by clarity, passion, and precision. Maurice Abravanel was a renowned conductor known for elevating the Utah Symphony to international acclaim through ambitious recordings and innovative programming. His interpretations are celebrated for their insightfulness and expressive power. Vox Records is one of America?s oldest independent classical labels with a rich history dating back to 1945; it has built its reputation on high-quality recordings featuring both established artists and emerging talents.
