Bbc Sso/alpesh Chauhan - Tchaikovsky - Orch Works Vol 3 [CD]

Alpesh Chauhan and the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra continue their fascinating survey of Tchaikovsky's orchestral works, combining established repertoire with lesser-known works to great effect. For this third volume, the former are represented by orchestral excerpts from Eugene Onegin, and the brooding Marche slave. Eugene Onegin is without doubt Tchaikovsky's best-known opera, regularly performed by opera companies around the globe. The 'Entr'acte and Waltz' opens Act II, a party in the country for the name-day of Onegin's neighbour Tatyana, whilst the 'Polonaise' sets the scene for Act III, with another, much grander ball set years later in St Petersburg. The Marche slave was written in just five days as part of a fundraiser to support Montenegro and Serbia in their war against the Turks. Less well-known music includes the 'Dance of the Tumblers' from the rarely performed opera The Enchantress, whilst the overture The Storm was a student exercise inspired by the play by Alexander Ostrovsky. The most substantial work on the album is the Second Orchestral Suite, the format of which freed Tchaikovsky from the strict formal demands of the symphony and gave him greater licence for experimentation. The album is recorded in Surround Sound, and is available as a Hybrid SACD and in Dolby Atmos Spatial Audio.
