Tchaikovsky: Symphony No. 3 'Polish'/Francesca Da Rimini...

Tchaikovsky'sSymphony No. 3 in D major'Polish' is cast, uniquely for the composer, in five movements. There is nothing particularly Polish about the piece(the subtitle was added by the conductor Sir August Manns six years after Tchaikovsky's death)but it does display some characteristically German touches with echoes of Mendelssohn, Schumann and Schubert. The tragic and tempestuous symphonic poemFrancesca da Riminiis based on scenes from Dante'sDivine Comedy. The much-admired Tchaikovsky recordings by the Utah Symphony Orchestra and Maurice Abravanel - who brought his orchestra to prominence as one of America's most distinctive and respected - were originally released onVOXin 1974. The Elite Recordings forVOXby legendary producers Marc Aubort and Joanna Nickrenz are considered by audiophiles to be amongst the finest sounding examples of orchestral recordings.
