DescriptionReinhold Gliere was a compositional pupil of Ippolitov-Ivanov, and a grandson pupil of Rimsky-Korsakov. So he came by his Russian Nationalist credentials honestly, and never abandoned them over a very long, carefully non-controversial career that stretched into the 1950s. Gliere, whose family was quite wealthy, was able to study conducting in Berlin during 1905-08 with the renowned Oskar Fried. His co-student there was another wealthy young musician, Serge Koussevitzky, who would go on to fame as an expat conductor; and it was Koussevitzky who conducted the debut of Gliere's Second Symphony. All in all, it represents a great advance over his First. The themes all have a more distinct profile, and the orchestration is more adventurous. Gliere is also more expansive, testing the borders of symphonic development. Transfers are made at 768 kBits/s, directly from the disc. Bio enclosed.
