Kirill Karabits and the Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra embark on a fascinating journey through the seven Prokofiev symphonies, and will explore some rare works from the composer’s early years that help chart his symphonic development. On this first album of the cycle the rarely performed alternative ending for the Seventh Symphony can be heard.
“While conducting Prokofiev’s music, it is impossible not to feel the unique trust the composer grants by leaving a huge part of the interpretation to the performer, rather than demanding that they should illustrate and respect what is notated in the score: I almost feel I am involved in the creative process myself.” (Kirill Karabits)
“Cohesive, dynamic and alert, this is a highly auspicious start to what should be a keenly collected series” (The Telegraph)
“Karabits argues that the Third has a logic of its own, unrelated to the opera, and maintains his case in a truly terrifying yet detailed performance that precariously balances formal tautness with atrocious emotional intensity. The Seventh, he claims, is “a very tragic work”, which is pushing it, though his interpretation is unnervingly bleak.” (The Guardian)
“The rich, dark “Russian” sound and nimble virtuosity he gets from the band are vivid successes of his regime in Bournemouth.” (Sunday Times)
“The Bournemouth Orchestra can hold its head high in the most august company. These two performances are terrific.” (MusicWeb International)
