Glazunov - Concerto No. 1 in F Minor, Op. 92 [HL:400243]

Alexander Glazunov's first concerto is a beautiful piece uniquely constructed in two-movement form, the second movement being a series of variations. Beautiful and perfect writing for the instrument, lush orchestration, a masterwork in the Russian concerto literature. This deluxe 2CD set includes a slow-tempo practice version to help you get up to speed.

Contains an authoritative, newly engraved 96-page music score printed on high-quality ivory paper, with informative historical liner notes; a digital stereo compact disc featuring a complete performance of the concerto with orchestra and soloist, and a second performance minus you, the soloist; and a second compact disc containing a full-speed version of the complete version as well as a special -20% slow-tempo version of the accompaniment for practice purposes. The concerto is voluminously indexed for your practice and performance convenience.
