Immerse yourself in the rich, romantic soundscapes of Mily Balakirev with this comprehensive collection released on Chandos in 1998. Spanning over two hours, this album showcases Balakirev's mastery of symphonic and concertante forms, featuring his two symphonies, a piano concerto, and several overtures and symphonic poems. The First Symphony in C Major is a vibrant, energetic work, while the Second Symphony in D Minor is notable for its dramatic intensity and folk-inspired themes. The Piano Concerto No. 1 in F-Sharp Minor offers a virtuosic display of Balakirev's compositional prowess. Additionally, the overtures to "King Lear" and "In Bohemia," along with the symphonic poem "Tamara," provide a glimpse into the composer's ability to evoke vivid narratives and landscapes through music. This album is a testament to Balakirev's enduring influence on Russian music and a treasure trove for lovers of 19th-century romanticism.
