The current Tchaikovsky SO, founded in 1930, was known as the Bolshoi ("big", "great", "large") radio orchestra, and its Russian name still includes the word, but there was also a second radio SO: the current State Symphony Capella was originally founded as a second radio ensemble and moved under Ministry of Culture's aegis and Rozhdestvensky's direction after Maxim Shostakovich emigrated to West.
Title: Re: Russian Orchestras and their Principal Conductors Post by: Dundonnell on October 11, 2015, 07:44:06 pm Trying to make sense of the number and names of Russian orchestras is-for a non-Russian speaker-an absolute nightmare. This applies both before 1991 and the breakup of the USSR and after 1991 when a number of "new"orchestras sprang up.

This applies both before 1991 and the breakup of the USSR and after 1991 when a number of "new"orchestras sprang up. It's not easy even with some command of Russian as some groups choose to obscure certain details in their lineage. I worked on a similar project a couple of years ago on rateyourmusic.com, at least the permanent ensembles should be documented well enough on that site (or were as I left them...). http://markgorenstein.com/discography?page=6 I believe the "Russian Symphony Orchestra" Mark Gorenstein made recordings with in the 90s is the current Novaya Rossiya orchestra, conducted by Yuri Bashmet since 2002. http://www.nros.ru/nros/eng/ |
