Skladatel: CUI, César Antonowich ((1835-1918)) |
 | Jeho/jej hudba:
Opera's, suites for orchestra, a string quartet, small violin and cello pieces, pianoworks, songs.
Jeho/jej ivot:
Russian composer, son of French father and Lithuanian mother. Hij attended a military school for Civil Engineering en became an expert in military fortifications. He was very involved with music on an amateuristic level and as such he joined the Balakirev-group. He was a much better critic as he was a composer. His music does not have a nationalistic character; this could be due to his heritage; his mother did not have much Russian blood either.
He very much disliked the music of Tchaikovsky (his newspaper reviews of his symphonies, especially the earlier ones, were in an almost hateful tone).

Introduction
Cui was a composer and music critic, whose importance in the history of 19th-century Russian music cannot be overestimated. However, most of his compositions and writings have no particular appeal outside this context. Perhaps his contributions to military engineering have more lasting value.

Firma Melodiya presents an album of classical Russian romances performed by Elena Zaremba.
One of the best Russian mezzo-sopranos of her generation, the singer began her career at the Bolshoi Theatre of the USSR in the mid-1980s. She conquered the world of opera, performing at some of the best theatre and festival venues with Russian, Italian, French and German repertoire and taking part in productions with prominent soloists and conductors. Only recently has she turned to chamber vocal music for the first time.
Russian romance is a special genre demanding not only professional skills. Stage and life experience, a subtle sensation of music and poetry, complete understanding between a singer and an accompanist - all this is needed to fully grasp this sphere of vocal art. Elena Zaremba’s performances with chamber programmes confirm that romance is not respite from the operatic stage for her but a new step in her vocal and dramatic career.
The album covers a hundred years of the evolution of Russian romance - Glinka, Dargomyzhsky, Rubinstein, Cui, Tchaikovsky, Rachmaninov, Medtner.
This programme was born through collaboration with Antonina Kadobnova, a remarkable pianist and concertmaster. A prize-winner of international competitions, she is very active as both a solo performer and accompanist, performing with well-known and young vocalists.
These recordings of Russian romances were made by Elena Zaremba and Antonina Kadobnova in 2011.
