St. Petersburg Chamber Orchestra under baton of Edward Serov had made series of superb recordings during the communist regime in Russian history. Those recordings had unfortunately not been widely available even after the dissolution of USSR. Kontrapunkt in collaboration with Petersburg Recording Studio and Maestro Serov has restored and released many of those legendary recordings on CD.
This latest release features two now deceased leading string players of Russia Victor Liberman (violin) and Yuri Krammarov (viola).
The viola concerto by contemporary Russian composer Vladimir Tsytovich has never been available on CD before.
