About

The last in Delos’ Russian Disc recordings of seldom-heard Russian music, this release offers Don Quixote and Ivan IV, his two “symphonic pictures” of memorable character, in performances that have long been ranked as being the best available. Many of Rubinstein’s contemporaries considered these unique works to be among the finest music he wrote.

Given that we are unlikely to see much competition in this repertoire, it is good to find that the performances are accomplished ones. The State Symphony Orchestra of Russia... plays idiomatically and, when offered the opportunity in Ivan IV, with appropriately “Russian” verve...[Golovchin] knows exactly how this music needs to be presented to best effect.
