A re-release of this repackaged disc sees eminent conductor Zubin Mehta take up a Russian-flavoured baton for the 1997 Waldbühne concert, joined by the masterly Daniel Barenboim at the piano.

This Russian-themed night begins with Tchaikovsky’s Piano Concerto No. 1 in B flat minor and continues with other renowned pieces from Russian composers including Rimsky-Korsakov’s Flight of the Bumble Bee and Glinka’s Ruslan and Ludmila Overture.  The concert ends with the traditional operatic hit from Lincke Berliner Luft.
