Awards and reviews

Awards Issue 2005

Dmitri Hvorostovsky's naturally warm voice might not seem well suited to the grim sequence of Mussorgsky's four songs but he finds a skilful expressive range for them. This is a subtler performance, in some ways a more deliberately and ironically lyrical one, than many who seek out the more extreme operative resonances of the song... Temirkanov accompanies Hvorostovsky intelligently and gives a powerful, vivid account of Rachmaninov's Symphonic Dances.
