About

Petrushka follows the 2009 release of Stravinsky’s Firebird on Signum and is the second in a three-part series of works from Sergei Diaghilev’s Ballet Russes, performed by the BBC National Orchestra of Wales under Thierry Fischer. These recordings encapsulate the vivacity and passion of Stravinsky’s tale of three life-sized puppets, seemingly brought to life.

The disc also features three works by fellow Russian and Ballet Russes composer Anatoly Liadov: dark and dramatic tone-poems on Slavic witches and demons in Baba-yaga and Kikimora, and a tranquil and fairytale-like portrait of the Russian countryside in The Enchanted Lake.
