Music From Russia, Vol. III
This 1994 Music & Arts recording presents Stokowski conducting a comprehensive tour through Russian classical masters: Mussorgsky, Glinka, Shostakovich, Stravinsky, Tchaikovsky, Scriabin, Liadov, and Borodin. Stokowski understood how to make orchestral sound vivid and alive, and his interpretations bring out the bold colors and dramatic sweep these composers are famous for. The program flows from Romantic grandeur to modernist invention, showing how Russian classical music evolved over decades. It's an excellent overview of the tradition conducted by someone who knew how to make these works speak directly to the listener.
