Description: Description ESOTERIC Valery Gergiev Stravinsky The Rite of Spring SACD HybridProduct introduction A super-class performance and recording that reproduces the powerful power of primordial Russia. ■ The power and brilliance of rough stones that are barbaric Scriabin ``Prometheus'' in 1997, Stravinsky ``The Rite of Spring'' and Scriabin ``Poem of Ecstasy'' in 1999 were both recorded at tour destinations outside Russia, and the latter won the Record Academy Award in Japan. It is a masterpiece that has been highly acclaimed since its release, including winning the Grand Prize Silver Award (2001). The characteristics of Gergiev and the Mariinsky Orchestra's performances are, above all, full of vitality and passion, full of rich primary colors, and equipped with dramatic intensity and grand scale. prize. At the end of the 20th century, there was a strong tendency toward performances that were meticulously arranged down to the smallest detail, but Gergiev and the Mariinsky Orchestra brought this back to the starting point, and at the time the work was conceived, there was a certain We have revived the power and brilliance of the gemstones, which are out of the ordinary and even barbaric. The 3 songs on this album demonstrate Gergiev's ability in every aspect, and let us rediscover the primitive power that we have long forgotten. The daring rubato that is heard here and there in ``The Rite of Spring'' (especially the part where the tempo is extremely slowed down at the end of the song) and Scriabin's 2 songs keep the volume up until the end without getting out of breath. The toughness to keep running in gear is the unique charm of this combination. ■ The richness of the presence that seems to be swallowed up by the large-scale sound The Mikhail Hall in Mikkeli, Finland, where "Prometheus" was recorded, opened in 1998. Although it has only 694 seats, the stage is large enough to accommodate a full orchestra. Judging from the recording time, it may have been recorded in a trial before opening. In both hall recordings, the overall spatiality and volume of the orchestra are beautifully expressed, and the various parts of the large orchestra and the sense of localization of the solo instruments are clear, giving a sense of realism that is swallowed up by the large-scale sound. There is the richness of The breadth of the dynamic range of volume and range, which is a feature of the work and performance, is also ensured in the form it should be. The trumpet (“Ecstasy”) and piano (“Prometheus”), which appear as important solo instruments in Scriabin’s two pieces, have a strong presence as soloists, but are not out of place in the mass of the orchestra. Mixed. The chorus, which appears only at the end of «Prometheus», adds a unique tone with a skillful balance. Both albums have been known for their excellent recordings since the beginning of their release, so this is the first time they have been remastered. In this Super Audio CD hybridization, as in the past, we have made no compromises from the selection of the master to be used to the final DSD mastering process. Especially for DSD mastering, we used the newly constructed "Esoteric Mastering". ESOTERIC's top-of-the-line equipment Master Sound Discrete DAC and Master Sound Discrete Clock are introduced. Also, by generously using the MEXCEL cable, we were able to record the information of the original master on a disc with a relaxing sound.Work information Alexander Toradze, PianoKirov Chorus, St PetersburgKirov Orchestra, Mariinsky Theater, St PetersburgConducted by Valery Gergiev Contents Number of components | 1 sheets Track Listing 1-14.
