Violin Concerto
Subcollection: Violin and Orchestra"On stage, Oistrakh produces an impression of a colossus. He firmly stands on the ground, he holds his violin proudly, and he creates music that finds expression in an endless stream of beauty and grace", wrote the great violin player Isaac Stern. Among the numerous famous performers the 20th century gave to the world, David Oistrakh ranks especially high. "… one of the really great violinists of our time. Oistrakh is great not because he is a virtuoso, but because he is a genuine, inspired musician," wrote the press during his first coming to the United States in 1955. Oistrakh had to play the very first concert of that tour on the same day with performances of Nathan Milstein and Mischa Elman (Joseph Szigeti played on the same day at another venue in New York). Fritz Kreisler who was in the house expressed his admiration for Oistrakh after the concert. Firma Melodiya presents a set of recordings by the great musician of this country. Oistrakh recorded violin concertos by Bach, Mozart, Viotti, Beethoven, Tchaikovsky, Brahms, Dvorak, and Taneyev in the 1950s and 1960s in the prime of his performing career jointly with some of the best conductors of the previous century such as Nikolai Malko, Herbert von Karajan, Alexander Gauk, Kirill Kondrashin and Gennady Rozhdestvensky. The performances of Brahms's and Franck's sonatas by David Oistrakh and Sviatoslav Richter also featured in this set once was unanimously recognized by domestic and foreign audiences as one of the best achievements of the 20th century in the field of chamber music.

Subcollection: Cello and OrchestraDaniil Borisovich Shafran had a creative career of more than 60 years and music journalist Artyom Vagraftik described him as “…a man who was literally chained to his cello and who imagined no life without constant communication with music.”
In this 5 CD collection, he performs works by Bach, Chopin, Rachmaninov, Brahms, Shostakovich, Prokofiev, Boccherini, Haydn and Tchaikovsky.
“Paganini of the 21st century,” “a musician … possessing the most melodious sound among all the existing string performers,” “…his art reaches the borders of supernatural” - these are some of enthusiastic epithets that domestic and foreign music critics endowed Daniil Borisovich Shafran. His creative career of more than 60 years made up a whole era in the Russian and world performing arts of the 20th century. “That was a musician you could take to paint a portrait of not just a genuine intellectual of St. Petersburg or the last romantic, but also a workaholic in the finest sense of the word - a man who was literally chained to his cello and who imagined no life without constant communication with music,” wrote music journalist Artyom Vagraftik about Daniil Shafran.

Ballet Music
Subcollection: OrchestreThe repertoire of any ballet company always has three performances penned by the same author - Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky. These are Swan Lake (1877), The Sleeping Beauty (1889) and The Nutcracker (1892). If now these works are not only known to the whole world but have become a tradition, in Tchaikovsky’s time they opened a new era of the Russian ballet. Tchaikovsky was one of the first Russian composers who turned to the genre of ballet adding a self-reliant artistic value to the music. The Firma Melodiya programme titled “P.I. Tchaikovsky - Ballets” features the music by the greatest Russian composer performed by the USSR State Academic Symphony Orchestra lead by the prominent conductor of modern time Evgeny Svetlanov. The wealth of Tchaikovsky’s scores performed by the celebrated orchestra allows the listeners to get immersed in the magical world of the characters of Swan Lake, The Sleeping Beauty and The Nutcracker, literally visualizing it.
