Conductor Ilan Volkov leads the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra through three landmark Stravinsky compositions on this 2009 Hyperion release. Orpheus, Jeu De Cartes, and Agon represent different phases of the composer's relentless innovation—from the lyrical modernism of Orpheus to the rhythmic complexity and twelve-tone techniques in Agon. Stravinsky's orchestral writing is always vivid and precise; these pieces crackle with sharp rhythms, unexpected instrumental combinations, and structural inventiveness. Hyperion's recording captures the crystalline clarity of Stravinsky's orchestration beautifully. Volkov brings both intellect and energy to the music, ensuring these works sound as fresh and challenging as when first composed. Essential for serious classical listeners.
