About

Kirill Petrenko is due to succeed Simon Rattle as the principal conductor of the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra, and these recordings demonstrate the interpretive brilliance of this previously relatively unknown musician.

While Petrenko was serving as the general music director at the Berlin Comic Opera, he conducted symphonic works by Josef Suk for cpo that we are now offering to you in a 3 CD box at a special low price. Petrenko has a particular interest in Josef Suk and offers a breath-taking interpretation of the great Asreal symphony, Suk’s symphonic poem A Summer’s Tale and, finally, A Winter's Tale overture, after Shakespeare’s drama 'A Winter’s Tale'.

The Orchestra of the Berlin Comic Opera demonstrates that it "is absolutely equal to the high demands of the scores, and Petrenko’s interpretive approach illuminates Suk’s complex tone world and shows it in a suspenseful and richly pictorial light" (klassik-heute.com).
