Given his Russian background and his outstanding leadership of the Bolshoi in the past, it is not surprising that his performances of the composer's works are entirely idiomatic. This live performance of Tchaikovsky's popular Symphony No.5 comes from the 1978 Flanders Festival in Belgium and has been recorded in excellent stereo. It is both exciting and poetic, and it confirmed Rozhdestvensky's new appointment as music director of the BBC Symphony the same year. The fill-up consists of Jan+ícek's rhapsody Taras Bulba recorded at the 1981 Proms. This work is a new addition to Rozhdestvensky's discography. Taras Bulba is arguably Janacek's most powerful and dramatic work. Here, it is given a searing performance in superb stereo, which fully captures the large orchestra used, complete with organ, brass and percussion.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTracks:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1.1 Andante - Allegro Con Anima \u003cbr\u003e1.2 Andante Cantabile, Con Alcuna Licenza \u003cbr\u003e1.3 Valse: Allegro Moderato \u003cbr\u003e1.4 Finale: Andante Maestoso - Allegro Vivace \u003cbr\u003e1.5 The Death of Andrei \u003cbr\u003e1.6 The Death of Ostap \u003cbr\u003e1.7 The Prophecy and the Death of Taras Bulba\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Gennady Rozhdestvensky","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40556841041991,"sku":"22391735","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2976\/0132\/files\/2368899.jpg?v=1747381168","url":"https:\/\/tower.com\/products\/jancek-rozhdestvensky-bbc-symphony-orchestra-legacy-gennadi-rozhdestvensky","provider":"Tower Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
