Overview
This core release from Naxos presents the complete, monumental spectrum of Sergey Prokofiev's compositions written for cello and orchestra. Recorded at the Concert Studio of the National Radio Company of Ukraine in Kiev between December 26th and 28th, 1995, the album highlights his masterly Symphony-Concerto in E minor, Op. 125, alongside the rare Concertino in G minor, Op. 132, and the vibrant Two Pushkin Waltzes, Op. 120. Performed with fierce virtuosity by renowned cellist Alexander Rudin and backed by the National Symphony Orchestra of Ukraine under the baton of Theodore Kuchar, this compilation flawlessly balances technical brilliance with deep Soviet-era romanticism.
