...It is not easy to perform modern music. / I could no possibly list all the major works by Soviet composers which were first performed by the Philharmonic. Those that stick out in my mind, however, are Prokofiev's cantatas Ivan the Terrible and To the Twentieth Anniversary of the October Revolution, Kabalevsky's Requiem, Sviridov's Kursk Songs, Boris Chaikovsky's symphony and instrumental concertos, Weinberg's symphonies, and works by Khrennikov, Mirzoyan, Taktakishvili, Babadjanian, Nikolayev and many others. / Were all grateful to the orchestra for the great contribution it has made in widening the repertoire of our concerts. |
