@DeliciousManager I realize this comment is a year late... You can tell how often I check. Well, let's just say that when we performed it at the University of Houston with Yevgeny present, the piece was an hour long. And I am not mistaking it for another piece. I still remember the Russian Clinic we had with him... Being taught to yell out curses in Russian, the four pages of shrieks, his explaination of the story behind the music. The whole experience is engrained in me.
Strange there are so few recordings by major conductors on the market for this work. Can we ever expect a recording by Gergiev for example? As a cantata, it has nothing to envy to the more famed Alexandre Newsky cantata. This Kondrashin recording outdoes any other I've heard. Unfortunately not available as a single CD. Thank you so much for this wonderful upload!!
Melodiya have reissued the complete cycle of symphonies on CD conducted by Kondrashin. This version of the Execution of Stepan Razin is also in the box, as well as Oistrakh in the 2nd Violin Concerto. If you can find it don't hesitate, it's indispensible
Thank you for posting this! I've got the Gerard Schwarz/Seattle Symphony Orchestra rendition but have read that this version, the original premier, outdoes that recording. Finally, I get to hear it without trying to track down a vinyl and a player for it!
