Not a hair of a note was out of place; this was a performance by a world-class orchestra' The Times o Kirill Karabits is without doubt one of the most exciting conductors of the younger generation. o Now principal conductor of the Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra, his reputation over two seasons has continued to spread around the world, and the steady stream of great artists working with him and the BSO is testament to his artistry and huge talent. o This CD is the first release in the new partnership between the BSO and ONYX. Khachaturian's vividly colourful and deliciously tuneful ballet scores have been popular as orchestral showpieces ever since the ballets had their premieres. o Kirill has made his own selection from the score, and those who want the famous Adagio from Spartacus and the Sabre Dance from Gayaneh will not be disappointed! |
