About this product
The music of the Romanian composer Anatol Vieru (1926-98) is an arresting fusion of classical procedures, avant-garde modernism and folk roots; an accent from his Jewish heritage - he narrowly escaped a pogrom in the ghetto of his native Iasi in 1944 - also underlies his musical impulses. These divergent influences fed into a musical language that is simultaneously familiar and intriguingly unconventional, with hypnotic, quasi-minimalist passages rubbing shoulders with bursts of wild, gypsy-like energy. It can likewise encompass both an epic sense of scale and chuckling good humour.

The music of Andrei Golovin (b. 1950, Moscow) lies in the Russian symphonic tradition downstream from Shostakovich and Boris Tchaikovsky. His music employs a somber lyricism to conjure up images of vast open spaces but can also flare up in outbursts of considerable power. This CD presents a conspectus of almost four decades of compositions, ranging from his first symphony to his most recent. This is the first appearance of any of Mr. Golovin's music on any western tag. These recordings also mark the first appearances of Messrs. Bereznitsky, Rudin and Levin on Toccata Classics.
