ST. PETERSBURG STATE SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA The St Petersburg State Symphony Orchestra was established in 1969 as the Russian State Concert Orchestra. Work with the conductor Andre Anichanov began in March 1991. In the following year the orchestra was awarded State Symphony status and changed its name, continuing its established and wide-ranging repertoire, with particular proficiency in the interpretation of Russian music. The orchestra performs in the St Petersburg Philharmonic Hall, the Academic Capella and Smolny Cathedral and has undertaken successful tours abroad, from near-by Finland to as far afield as South Korea. Recordings for Naxos include the three symphonies of Rimsky-Korsakov and the "Spartacus" and "Gayane" ballet suites of Khachaturian.
