CD Reviews

Not how I remember it
F. Behrens | Keene, NH USA | 10/04/1999
(3 out of 5 stars)

"This "Nevsky" was much beloved by me and my classical music loving friends when it appeared as an LP about 45 years ago and I do remember it being a lot more exciting. On this Vanguard CD the conducting seems tame, the chorus less powerful than on other recordings--all in all a disappointment. The "Kiji" suite that follows is good but still a little pallid up against much of the competitive issues. I love the notes, however, and some of you might want to own this set to renew some old memories of the wonderyears of the LP when there simply were not that many recordings of each of our favorites to make comparisons."
