Description
TCHAIKOVSKY Symphony No. 1 & Marche Slave (Slavonic March)
Mikhail Pletnev, conductor
Russian National Orchestra
This is a hybrid Super Audio CD playable on both regular and Super Audio CD players.
While Tchaikovsky’s three last symphonies form an integral part of today’s concert repertoire, performances of his first three symphonies are still quite rare – a fate which none of them deserves.
The Russian National Orchestra’s Tchaikovsky recordings have met with critical praise since PENTATONE began releasing its widely acclaimed Tchaikovsky series. Conductor Mikhail Pletnev has turned the RNO into an exceptional Tchaikovsky ensemble, leading to such rave reviews as “the most exciting interpretations of the work you’re likely to hear” (Classical Candor).
