Tcherepnin: Song Cycles / Mindlina, Witten
Label: TOCCATA CLASSICS Catalog: TOCC0221 Format: CD SONGS "• Russian-born composer and conductor Nikolai Tcherepnin (1873–1945) was Rimsky-Korsakov student and Prokofiev's teacher. • This CD provides an overview of his ninety-plus songs, which cover a wide range of styles. • The early ones are in a late-Romantic idiom; the Japanese Lyrics of 1923 display oriental colours; and the Oceanic Suite (1917–23), which sets a series of incantations by the symbolist poet Konstantin Balmont, are modern evocations of primitive ritual."
