| | The Red Baton Scenes of musical life in stalinist Russia. Between 1917 and 1990, the Soviet Union was the setting for a fascinating paradox upon which this film will attempt to shed some light. Against a backdrop of extreme hardship, indeed terror, there developed one of the most intense and rich musical arenas of the 20th century. Major composers, virtuoso performers, the most prestigious orchestras displayed their talent throughout these 70 years, in situations that were dangerous and precarious, often grotesque and always extreme Gennadi Rozhdestvensky: Conductor or Conjuror?

symphony swept aside with such authority." The Daily Telegraph | | | In stock - usually despatched within 1 working day. |
