VASILENKO: Chinese Suite / Indian Suite
Sergey Vasilenko was among the most distinguished conductors and composers of the Soviet Union. His interest in the relatively exotic is shown in his Chinese Suite and in the still more varied Indian Suite, derived from his ballet Noyya. Oriental musical elements are incorporated in an orchestral texture in the tradition of Rimsky-Korsakov and the Russian nationalist composers of the nineteenth century.
