Karaev "Cyrano de Bergerac"

[Toby Esterhase]

Truly  it seems a reissue of an old LP and i don't know if they want release it physically on cd:

[M. Yaskovsky]

Since I don have iTunes I hope a physical CD release will follow. Who are the performers?

This is not Qarayev's "Don Quixote" (which is a film score in fact, from which Qarayev arranged his pretty famous Symphonic Engravings which have been recorded several times), but his musical comedy (operetta) "Cyrano de Bergerac" from 1973. The performers can be seen here, for instance:

Basically, it's the Estrade Symphony Orchestra of Soviet Radio and TV and the Soviet Song Ensemble conducted by Yuri Silantiev together with a number of solo singers, of course.
