About

Boris Tishenko's career as a composer spans the modest thaw under Khrushchev, the Brezhnev freeze, Gorbachev's perestroika and the great leap into liberal economics under Yeltsin that continues strong under Putin.

Though he was Shostakovich's favourite pupil and has for 50 years been a major figure in St. Petersburg musical life, his musical work is little known outside specialist circles. A renowned professor of composition, Tishenko is the author of a great variety of works: some touch upon a new age mysticism, but most build on the tradition of Shostakovich.

Fuga Libera here give us an overview of
Tishenko's post-2000 compositions, inspired by a very committed Gennady Rozhdestvensky in these live performances.

The celebrated maestro conducts his wife Victoria Postnikova and his son Alexander
Rozhdestvensky in a surprising double concerto, and, leading the Moscow Symphony Orchestra, displays the grimacing feast of an epic symphony inspired by Dante's Divine Comedy.
