The Soviet musical establishment considered Dmitry Kabalevsky a "dream composer," as his compositions fit the prescribed Soviet formula for "proper" Russian music: his works were bright, straightforward, often folk-based, and made few demands on the listener's intellect. Still, his undisputed gifts as a melodist and orchestrator - as well as his musical sincerity - made him one of the most popular of the soviet-era composers among the masses.
This appealing Russian Disc re-release offers some of his finest and best-known works, including the symphonic suites Romeo and Juliet and The Comedians, his tone poem The Spring, and the Pathetique and Colas Breugnon overtures. Anatoly Lapunov leads the Byelorussian Radio and Television Orchestra in sturdy, spirited and idiomatically true performances.
