Reinhold Glière’s Horn Concerto with Radek Baborak and Dmitri Kitayenko
In this recording, Radek Baborak, former 1st principal horn with the Berliner Philharmoniker, performs the Horn Concerto by the Russian composer Reinhold Glière, in which a nostalgic tone conjuring up Western Romanticism is charmingly blended with Russian folk songs. Dmitri Kitayenko also conducts Alexander Scriabin’s opulently orchestrated Third Symphony, a hymn to the freedom of the spirit.
