National Symphony Orchestra Of Ukraine & Theodore Kuchar

Description:

A well-established and famous recording is now on LP!The powerful sounding Festive Overture is a popular work among audiophiles, which pushes forward in the main section following the brilliant fanfare, while also utilizing material from the previous year’s Symphony No. 10 Scherzo. Shostakovich’s Jazz Suite is a work from the 1930s. In the Soviet Union at that time, in addition to the National Jazz Orchestra, a number of state-supported jazz bands were formed throughout the country. Shostakovich, a member of the Soviet Jazz Committee, also offered a delightful light classical work. The performance of the Ukrainian National Symphony Orchestra conducted by Kuchar skillfully expresses Shostakovich’s dynamism and humor.
