{"product_id":"tchaikovsky-shostakovich-haydn-kod-ly-others-orchestra","title":"Tchaikovsky, Shostakovich, Haydn, Kodály \u0026 Others: Orchestra","description":"Ukrainian-born conductor  \u003cb\u003eNicolai Malko\u003c\/b\u003e studied music in St. Petersburg. He eventually began teaching at the Moscow and Leningrad Conservatories. Malko had a sporadic relationship with the BBC, and although he was never a staff conductor, he visited, taught, and conducted occasionally from 1929 until his passing in 1962. This 4-disc set contains some of Malko’s best conducting for BBC broadcast, including works by Tchaikovsky, Shostakovich, Haydn, Mussorgsky, Bruckner, and more.\u003cbr\u003e  \u003cbr\u003e \"This well-transferred collection of BBC broadcasts has to be one of the most significant \"historical\" orchestral releases in recent years. There are of course various commercial discs with Malko; here, though, we have the Russian-born conductor captured in full flight.\u003cbr\u003e  \u003cbr\u003e  The principle novelty is The Kodaly's one-act theater piece The Spinning Room, sung in English, and thoroughly enjoyable. The remainder of the set is purely orchestral.\u003cbr\u003e  \u003cbr\u003e  Minor tape imperfections and playing fluffs notwithstanding, this is a musically enriching set and our experience of the conductor is duly extended.\" –  \u003ci\u003eGramophone\u003c\/i\u003e","brand":"Lyrita","offers":[{"title":"CD","offer_id":49704692449560,"sku":"5020926212023","price":32.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0687\/4346\/3192\/files\/3291259_db7f9961-a82c-4f8d-980b-5c1a9f843ea2.jpg?v=1777798115","url":"https:\/\/hbdirect.com\/products\/tchaikovsky-shostakovich-haydn-kod-ly-others-orchestra","provider":"HBDirect","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
