Melodiya presents recordings of the outstanding Soviet conductor Alexander Melik- Pashayev.

His performing career at the USSR Bolshoi Theatre lasted more than 30 years and made up a whole era in the life of the famous company. His numerous recordings of opera sets, including those awarded with prestigious foreign prizes such as Borodin’s Prince Igor, Prokofiev’s War and Peace and Mussorgsky’s Boris Godunov, are very well known. However, he is less known as a symphony conductor, but Melik-Pashayev’s concerts with the Bolshoi orchestra were some of the brightest ones in Moscow’s eventful music life. Melodiya revisits this part of Melik-Pashayev’s conducting legacy.

Melodiya presents a 4 CD set of recordings by pianist Grigory Sokolov. One of the best contemporary representatives of the St. Petersburg piano school, Sokolov is now well known in Russia and beyond. He tours around the globe delighting the audiences of the old and new worlds. Sokolov is a master of now rare “intellectual” pianism. However, unlike the great piano intellectual of the 20th century Glenn Gould, Sokolov prefers live concerts to studio work. “The biggest chasm is the one between a microphone and an individual,” the musician believes.

Firma Melodiya presents a solo album of Ekaterina Mechetina, a wonderful Russian pianist of the new generation.

A graduate of the Moscow Conservatory where she studied under associate professor Vladimir Ovchinnikov and professor Sergey Dorensky, and a laureate of the Youth Prize “Triumph” and seven prestigious international competitions, Ekaterina Mechetina began to conquer the musical Olympus at a very early age.

The young pianist’s first concert took place when she was ten. Her pianistic gift was acknowledged by some of the great masters of 20th century music art. So, Rodion Shchedrin entrusted her with the world premiere of his sixth piano concert after he heard her for the first time; Mstislav Rosropovich invited her to perform with the orchestra he conducted. Ekaterina Mechetina has won the audiences of some of the world’s best venues. Today, the pianist plays over sixty concerts annually performing at some of the largest concert hall. Her repertoire includes about fifty piano concertos and dozens of solo programmes. She has worked with outstanding soloists, conductors, symphony and choir collectives of Russia and other countries. The pianist’s perfect mastery, bright creative individuality and amazing artistic charisma have won the hearts of listeners around the world. On this album, Ekaterina Mechetina appears as an inspired interpreter of Russian classical piano music. Apart from one of then greatest cycles of Russian music of the 19th century which is Modest Mussorgsky’s Pictures at an Exhibition, it also includes eight of the études-tableaux from Rachmaninoff’s Op. 33 and two virtuosic pieces by Tchaikovsky - Dumka and Theme with Variations.

Bolshoi Theatre Choir and Orchestra, Alexander Melik-Pashayev


Firma Melodiya presents a recording of a wonderful but now so rarely performed lyric and comic opera - Tchaikovsky’s Cherevichki.

The opera was initially named 'Vakula the Smith'. In 1874, Tchaikovsky won a competition announced by the Russian Music Society for the best opera to a libretto by Yakov Polonsky based on the famous story 'Christmas Eve' by Nikolai Gogol from his collection 'Evenings on a Farm near Dikanka'. However, Tchaikovsky was left displeased with his piece and reworked it in 1887. The opera was then staged at the Bolshoi Theatre, and the first night of Cherevichki became Tchaikovsky’s debut as a conductor.

Gogol was one of Tchaikovsky’s favourite authors. The composer liked to stay in the Ukraine, in his sister’s manor Kamenka. Tchaikovsky brought to life the characters from Gogol’s story, their lives, legends and emotions, with the help of folk tunes, dance rhythms and expressive lyric intonations. The opera also has a gallant intermezzo - the scene at St Petersburg court in the 18th century which also attracted the composer in a later opera, 'The Queen of Spades'.

This recording of Cherevichki was realized in the late 1940s by the Bolshoi troupe led by the outstanding conductor Alexander Melik-Pashayev and featured some of the best performers of the Bolshoi of the time, such as Elena Kruglikova, Elizaveta Antonova, Georgy Nelepp, Andrei Ivanov, Maxim Mikhailov and others.

Firma Melodiya presents a unique set of recordings by soloists of the USSR Bolshoi Theatre - outstanding singers who performed on the main stage of this country during 1945 to 1990.

They call it the golden age of the Bolshoi not for nothing.

The first music theatre of the country attracted undiverted attention of not just millions of spectators and listeners (getting a ticket to the Bolshoi was almost an impracticable task for a “common Soviet citizen”). The supreme leadership of the Soviet Union watched the life of the theatre as closely as real music lovers did. Nearly all the premieres took place under the sign of “special responsibility”. The theatre recruited the best artistic forces from all over the country, and in the post-war period there still were those who got their education and started their careers even before the revolution keeping the continuity of the old tradition of the Imperial Bolshoi Theatre.

Galina Vishnevskaya, Irina Arkhipova, Elena Obraztsova, Tamara Sinyavskaya, Sergey Lemeshev, Ivan Kozlovsky, Vladimir Atlantov, Alexander Pirogov, Mark Reizen, Evgeny Nesterenko are just some of 30 soloists featured in this set. They are accompanied by the Bolshoi Orchestra lead by various conductors such as Nikolai Golovanov, Samuil Samosud, Alexander Melik-Pashayev, Evgeny Svetlanov, Gennady Rozhdestvensky, Yuri Fayer, Mark Ermler, Alexander Lazarev and others. Each of them made a valuable contribution to the treasury of Russian music culture of the 20th century.

The set includes fragments from Russian classical opera and ballet repertoire of the 19th and 20th centuries, and some of the most popular foreign operas and ballets staged at the Bolshoi

Sleeping Beauty A ballet in 3 acts and prologue Op. 66


Firma Melodiya presents a complete recording of Pyotr Tchaikovsky’s ballet The Sleeping Beauty.

This ballet was finished in 1889 and has been one of the greatest masterpieces of musical and ballet art for more than a hundred years now. Tchaikovsky created the ballet in association with the outstanding ballet master Marius Petipa who later worked on The Nutcracker as well.

“The matter is not only about slapping up some commonplace ballet music. I have the impudence to conceive a genre masterpiece”, Tchaikovsky wrote.

The Sleeping Beauty stands out not only for its perfect synthesis of music and choreography inspired by the plot of Charles Perrot’s fairy tale. Tchaikovsky created a new type of 'symphonized ballet' where the images evolve and the main idea of the victory of good over evil is realized through musical means. This is what makes The Sleeping Beauty so popular in concerts too, where it, as a rule, sounds as a symphonic suite.

This recording, made in 1980 by the USSR State Academic Symphony Orchestra conducted by Evgeny Svetlanov as part of the Anthology of Russian Symphonic Music, presents a complete score of Tchaikovsky’ ballet, including the numbers usually omitted in the choreographic productions. You have a chance to hear a truly remarkable performance of The Sleeping Beauty as it was conceived by the composer.

Kolekce: Ruské romancePodkolekce: Vocal and Piano

Firma Melodiya presents a programme of Russian chamber lyric compositions sung by the outstanding Hibla Gerzmava.

There is no doubt that the singer is one of today’s most brilliant vocalists of Russia and the world. A People’s Artist of Russia and the Republic of Abkhazia, a winner of the Golden Mask, Casta Diva, Triumph and Golden Orpheus awards, a welcome and longed-for guest of the greatest operatic and concert stages worldwide, she has performed at the Mariinsky Theatre in Saint Petersburg, the Wiener Staatsoper, the Bayerische Staatsoper in Munich, Covent Garden and Metropolitan Opera, the Théâtre du Châtelet and Théâtre des Champs Elysées in Paris, the Teatro dell’Opera di Roma in Rome and Teatro Comunale di Firenze in Florence, the Gran Teatre del Liceu in Barcelona, the Palau de les Arts Reina Sofia in Valencia, the NHK Hall in Tokyo, and took part in the closing ceremony of the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi.

However, chamber lyric singing, another side of the remarkable singer’s talent, has never been behind the scenes for her true fans. When Hibla Gerzmava was a contestant at the Tchaikovsky Competition, she received a special prize for her performance of Tchaikovsky’s Lullaby.

The singer’s new programme fully unveils a vivid and rich period of Russian music of the late 19th and the first quarter of the 20th centuries. Hibla Gerzmava is accompanied by pianist Yekaterian Ganelina, an Honoured Artist of the Republic of Abkhazia and an owner of many diplomas as the best concertmaster of prestigious international competitions, who has performed with the singer in Russia and abroad for many years now.

Anthology of Piano Music by Russian and Soviet Composers
Part 3 Disc 1: Before 1917

This eighth disc of the Anthology of Russian Piano Music is dedicated to the roots of Russian piano school and encompasses the first hundred years of its development in the 19th and early 20th centuries.

The acknowledged Russian classical composers Glinka, Tchaikovsky, Taneyev and Lyadov are here (represented with rarely performed works though), along with little known or now completely forgotten composers such as Rubinstein, Rebikov and Arensky.

A unique journey across the pages of lyrical and dramatic traditions of Russian pianism allows us to see how general European trends of piano music were combined with national attributes of domestic culture. Taneyev’s Prelude and Fugue in G sharp minor is a climax of the album - a grandiose polyphonic cycle, one of the peaks of Russian music of the pre-revolution period.

The works of the Russian composers are performed by young pianists - graduates of the Moscow Conservatory and prize-winners of prestigious international competitions, who are worthy representatives of a new generation of Russian music performing school - Vyacheslav Gryaznov, Alexei Chernov, Mikhail Turpanov, Rustam Khanmurzin and Nikita Mndoyants.

Kolekce: Vocal and Opera CollectionPodkolekce: Voices and Orchestra

Firma Melodiya presents a jubilee release of one of the most distinguished singers of modern times - Elena Obraztsova.

Obraztsova has sung at the world’s best opera and concert houses. Her operatic heroines are known and loved by millions of listeners on different continents. She has worked with the greatest opera directors, conductors and soloists. However, the singer still considers the Bolshoi Theatre her principal operatic home, where she debuted as Marina Mniszech in Boris Godunov more than fifty years ago.

That was the time of the Bolshoi’s golden cohort, when Obraztsova’s voice and dramatic gift shone among the other outstanding representatives of Soviet music art. That was an era of the Bolshoi’s first international triumphs when the young singer, along with the other new soloists of the troupe, was receiving rousing welcomes during the tours of Italy and the United States. That was an era when the perennial traditions existed in harmony with the spirit of newness introduced by the younger artists and the experience shared with foreign peers.

The release features fragments of Russian and foreign operas which make up just a portion of Elena Obraztsova’s extensive repertoire. Still, they largely convey the main features of her performing individuality, her mastery of musical dramatic transformation making us recognize the singer’s voice on recordings from different years.

The music by Donizetti, Verdi, Saint-Saens, Bizet, Massenet, Tchaikovsky, Rimsky-Korsakov and Mussorgsky is performed to the accompaniment of the USSR Bolshoi Theatre Orchestra conducted by the outstanding maestros Boris Khaikin, Odyssey Dimitriadi, Algis Žiūraitis and Mark Ermler.

Donizetti -O mio Fernando (from La Favorita)
