Steven Osborne pf (Hyperion) After his disc of Rachmaninov’s 24 Preludes (6/09), Steven Osborne moves into rougher Russian waters with Mussorgsky and Prokofiev. And here, once more, is an ideal blend of fidelity to the score, with a subtle and distinctive rather than overbearing musical personality. In the Mussorgsky everything is as musicianly as ...
Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra / Kirill Karabits (Onyx) This is Mussorgsky’s startling original version of Night on the Bare Mountain. It’s hard returning to Rimsky-Korsakov’s benign ‘re-composition’ of this piece once you’ve heard how much of its originality – texturally, structurally, harmonically – was neutered by the well-meaning but misguided ...
Sols; Vienna Boys' Choir; Slovak Philharmonic Chorus; Vienna State Opera Chorus; Vienna State Opera Orchestra / Claudio Abbado (DG) We have here a Khovanshchinawhich may not present a complete solution to the work—its history is too uncertain and complex for that—but which does come closer than ever before to what seems to have been Mussorgsky's vi...
Dmitri Hvorostovsky bar Ivari Ilja pf (Ondine) Dmitri Hvorostovsky was born to sing these songs, and indeed many collectors will probably already have the performance of Mussorgsky’s Songs and Dances of Deaththat he recorded two decades ago with Valery Gergiev (Philips, 5/94). Here, however, he far surpasses that earlier disc: in choosing now to re...
Elisabeth Söderström sop Vladimir Ashkenazy pf (Decca) It is their realism that saves these Nursery songs, and Elisabeth Söderström emphasizes this by her lifelike distinction between child and nanny. She darkens and 'ages' her tone-colour and her verbal enunciation with great skill and enunciates her (Russian) words with excellent clarity, which i...
Sols; Kirov Opera & Orchestra, St Petersburg / Valery Gergiev (Philips) Gergiev directs strong, incisive performances, accompanying sympathetically and controlling the marvellous crowd scenes well. However, it is a pity that he allows fierce whistles completely to drown the speeding violins opening the Kromy Forest scene (the music can be heard onl...

Dec 9, 2003 · However, Mussorgsky was accurately depicting the superficial emotions of two plotting self-seekers and of the deceitful Jesuit, an agent intent on promoting what to the Orthodox was a false religion. The Final Version suffers from the lack of the very strong St. Basil's scene, in which truth, in the form of the Holy Fool, confronts Boris.
