GLAZUNOV, A.K.: Orchestral Works, Vol. 16 - The Sea / Oriental Rhapsody / Ballade / Cortege solennel (Moscow Symphony, Golovschin)

A precocious pupil of Rimsky-Korsakov, Glazunov was able to add to a post-nationalist synthesis in Russian music, combining national inspiration with sound compositional technique. His Fantasy The Sea is programmatic, a homage to Wagner, and the Oriental Rhapsody follows an even more detailed and exotic narrative scheme.
