The Whole Note Reviews Russia Cast Adrift

Dmitri Hvorostovsky - Georgy Sviridov: Russia Cast Adrift
Order Now

“The relationships between composers and their favourite interpreters are responsible for some of the best vocal music ever written. … Georgy Sviridov found his muse in Dmitri Hvorostovsky. … Hvorostovsky became “the” voice for Sviridov’s music. The one project the composer did not finish before his death was an orchestral version of Russia Cast Adrift. Here it is recorded by an orchestra and folk-instrument ensemble, in a version completed by Evgeny Stetsyuk. … Given the present situation in that great nation, [poet Sergei Yesenin’s] words acquire additional poignancy. Hvorostovsky’s voice does not betray any traces of the serious health crisis he has been undergoing of late. The album closes with a spine-tingling song, The Virgin in the City, from the vocal poem Petersburg, written especially for him.”
