The main contents of Volume 7 is comprised of the concerts recorded in 1954 - 1964. In this sense, the volume represents a continuation of the preceding volume, which included the concerts recorded in 1943 - 1954. Volume 7 contains a total of seven concerts. To note, one album is dedicated specifically to the concerts in Leningrad (now Saint Petersburg). An additional album (CDs 7 and 8) includes the latest cycles of the radio studio recordings in 1962 - 1963 (romances by Tchaikovsky and Rachmaninoff). We considered it very important to publish these cycles all together under one cover for the first time ever. Besides, taking into consideration the records issued in 1960s, it is worth mentioning that the Nighttime romance (Notch) on the verses by Y. Polonsky has never been published for some reason.
Additions to the concerts deserve special attention. A unique, never known before recording by Lemeshev made at the birthday of Olga L. Knipper-Chekhova is being presented for the first time ever. This is not a well know recording by Lemeshev and Kozlovsky, in which they congratulate Olga Leonardovna on the 50th anniversary of the Moscow Art Theatre (MKhT). On this recording, we can hear how Lemeshev sings several romances and songs to Knipper-Chekhova, and, besides, announces his numbers himself (!). The appearance of Lemeshev himself is being announced by Alexandra A. Yablochkina, the patriarch actress of the Maly Theatre and the then Chairwoman of the Russian Theatre Society (VTO). After Lemeshev’s appearance and in conclusion of the evening, Angelina O. Stepanova, the MKhT patriarch actress, reads aloud the letter from Knipper-Chekhova.
In addition, one can listen to four more excellent recordings on this disc from the Moscow radio studio stock. These are the romances recorded in 1950, which have never been published before in our collection.
The next album called “Leningrad” includes, along with the concerts at the BZP, or the Grand Hall of the Leningrad (now Saint Petersburg) Philarmonia, the rarest studio recordings being published for the first time ever. They were made on the Leningrad radio and were accompanied by the pianist E. Lebedev. Some other recordings were made together with S. Shaposhnikov (baritone). This small cycle of romances by Tchaikovsky, which was recorded in 1951, attracts everybody not only by their interpretation, but also by the unique version of the Usnee ("Do Fall Asleep") on the verses by Merezhkovsky. Its studio version is known in this cycle only, although there were two more concert recordings in Moscow, which were both issued earlier by our company for the first time ever.
As a supplement to the concerts, disc 5 includes two songs by Robert Schumann. It is worth mentioning that songs by Schumann are completely absent in Leveshev’s discography. In this case, we provide a fragment of one of the latest concerts, the records of which have not been preserved in the radio studio stock, but they have been luckily recorded on a tape recorder from the direct radio broadcasting. The same happened to the Okhotnik (“The Hunter”) by E. Grieg, a very rare song in Lemeshev’s repertoire. Also, in this disc and in the one that follows, we included two interviews with Lemeshev on the following subjects: “From the Song to the Opera” and “About the folk song in the Opera”. M. Nikiforov

Cycle of chromatic preludes «Thinking of Bach» for an organ is very successfully transformed for a bayan by a brilliant performer S. Shmelkov. There is a sense of Bach in each piece of this composition Communication slight tonalities in the letters of his surname (BACH), accepted in letter designations of notes (Si a flat, La, Do and Si). The same notes appear in each part of a cycle and, of course, the composition plan is reflected in its stylistics (R. Ledenyov).
Three piece in „mauvais” Style for a bayan with microphone one of S. Berinsky's most extravagant compositions for a bayan. Titles of parts are unusual and absurd: the first part - „L’AMOUR”, the second part - „Khoo?!” (But not in the meaning - „kho“), the third part - „Partando Vulp…” (Nobody knows what it means). «Three pieces - is a gloomy, depressive composition. When it has been written, I suddenly felt down and depressed». (S. Berinsky).
Four stories for the four flutes with a bayan is the first composition in literature of a bayan for such an ensemble. All the composition is impregnated by Russian national intonations, and in the third part the beginning of Russian national song «the Guelder-rose with a raspberry early has blossomed» and intonations of the Byzantian music are clearly heard. «In each story it would be desirable to show not only the character, an image, but to tell a story with the help musical resources» (O. Chistokhina).
Shmelkov Semion was born in Kemerovo. He came from the family of professional musicians. He began learning to play the bayan when he was 6. His teacher was V. V. Shmelkov. Semion finished the speacial music school of the Glinks Novosibirsk State Conservatory under the professor A. V. Krupin.
Now he is a student of the Gnessins Russian Musical Academy under the professor F. R. Lips. Semion Shmelkov isa ia laureate of the international competitions and he has Grand Prix VI of the international competition of the national music instruments "Cup of the North".
Semion performs in different cities of Russia. He was a grant-aided student of "The Junior talents of Kuzbass", the Fund "The Junior talents of Siberia", the ministry of the Russian Federation, the charity International Fund by Vladimir Spivakov. There are numbers articles in different magazines and newspapers about him. |
