Yuri Termirkanov

About

Conductor Yuri Termirkanov was born in 1938 in the northern Caucasus and started his musical studies in Leningrad at fifteen. In 1966, his colleague Kyril Kondrashin introduced him to western audiences who loved him from the start, as did the Russians. He managed to divide himself equally between the east and west.

With appointments at the Kirov Opera, the Royal Philharmonic, the Leningrad Philharmonic, Dresden Philharmonic and Baltimore Symphony, he developed a truly international reputation and received several important distinctions, including in 2003 the Federation President’s Prize.

Temirkanov’s style is highly emotional, placing much emphasis on colour and warmth. Naturally, this set contains a fair number of Russians works, from Tchaikovsky to Prokofiev, Khatchaturian, Scriabin, Rachmaninov and Shostakovich. Also included are lesser-known names such as Rodion Shchedrin (born 1932). The conductor also shows an affinity with a surprising number of French compositions by Ravel, Debussy and Ibert.

Beethoven’s eighth and Dvorák’s ninth symphonies are featured, as is Haydn’s symphony No. 104. The all Russian recordings date from approximately 1966 to 1985. They were made with, amongst others, The Kirov Theatre Orchestra, the State Academy Symphony Orchestra of USSR, the USSR State Symphony Orchestra and the Moscow Philharmonic Orchestra.
