About

This 4-CD, specially-priced boxed set “Russian Soul” celebrates the work of the greatest composers from one of the most important national centres of musical activity during the 19th and 20th centuries. Featured artists include Grigory Sokolov, Sergey Khachatryan, Sonia Wieder-Atherton, Tugan Sokhiev and Kurt Masur.

The set includes Mussorgsky’s “Pictures at an Exhibition”, Tchaikovsky’s Symphony No.4, both of Shostakovich’s Violin Concertos, piano music by Scriabin and Rachmaninov, and chamber music by Prokofiev and Shostakovich.

Since the 19th century, Russia has been one the most active nations in the field of music. Its output of masterpieces has been impressive. This collection of music is a glance at the ‘Russian soul’, a mix of Latin exuberance, Slavic strength and Oriental subtlety.
