A Musical America New Artist and BBC Rising Star, Ian Niederhoffer is a fast-rising, young conductor. Here, together with his orchestra Parlando, he explores music as a tool of cultural resilience in the face of censorship, particularly within the Soviet Union. This eclectic program includes Shostakovich's Adagio from Lady MacBeth of Mtsensk, a work infamously censored after Stalin's disapproval, the Concertino for Violin and String Orchestra by Mieczyslaw Weinberg, a composer whose career was shaped by persecution during Stalin's anti-cosmopolitan campaign, and Edvard Mirzoyan's Symphony for String Orchestra and Timpani, which is a powerful testament to Armenian cultural survival despite Soviet Russification. Inspired by Parlando's mission that "every concert tells a story", the album ends with three narrated tracks detailing Soviet censorship.
Tracklist:
- Lady Macbeth of Mtsensk~Adagio
- Concertino for Violin and String Orchestra, Op. 42~Allegretto cantabile
- Concertino for Violin and String Orchestra, Op. 42~Lento - Adagio
- Concertino for Violin and String Orchestra, Op. 42~Allegro moderato poco rubato
- Symphony for String Orchestra and Timpani~Andante patetico - Allegro moderato
- Symphony for String Orchestra and Timpani~Allegro ma non troppo
- Symphony for String Orchestra and Timpani~Adagio - Andante doloroso
