Georgy Sviridov’s most impressive musical works featured the human voice: romances, cantatas, oratorios, and hymns. His instrumental chamber music is less well-known, but makes up a valuable and essential portion of his musical legacy. If we divide music into three types according to Boethius, we can affirm that musica humana is well and alive in Sviridov’s musica instrumentalis.

Sviridov - Romances To A. Blok`s Lyrics / Cast Off Russia - Obraztsova (1991) Music

Posted by amadi at April 22, 2011

Settings of A. Blok's poems occupy a special place in Georgi Sviridov's work. For many years the composer has addressed his favourite poet discovering still newer facets of Alexander Blok's poetry. G. Sviridov has the honour of discovering another great poet of Russia, Sergei Esenin, for music. One of these discovering was "Cast Off Russia".
There is no Esenin's work of the same name. Poetical images created a kind of a large fresco which the composer so masterfully sets in motion with the rhvthms of his music. Music and melody enhance Esenin's poetry, full of images, which is like a song not in genre or form, but as an inherent creative pulse, as an irresistible urge to pour out his feelings in a song.

Posted by SERTiL at Sept. 13, 2017

Georgy Sviridov was a celebrated figure whose vocal works, along with those of his teacher Shostakovich, are considered to be among the most important in twentieth-century Russian music. His small cantata Snow is Falling includes passages of hypnotic stillness as well as folk-like warmth, while the major song cycle Russia Adrift evokes landscape, mysticism and religious faith, ending in a solemn hymn to the Motherland. Sviridovs prolific output included symphonic suites as well as theatre and film scores. The angular and impassioned Music for Chamber Orchestra reveals his mastery of non-vocal music.

Dmitri Hvorostovsky - Sviridov: Russia Cast Adrift (2017) Music

Posted by SERTiL at June 9, 2017

While greatly revered in Russia, the profound and beautiful music of neo-romantic composer Georgy Sviridov (19151998) is hardly known beyond his homelands borders. His predominantly vocal output reflects his strong affinity for many of the finest Russian poets, who inspired him to compose highly idiomatic music to match the emotional intensity and expressive passion of their verses. Thus did Sergei Yesenins vivid and moving poetry spark the creation of the stunning twelve-song cycle Russia Cast Adrift.

The Russian violinist Evgeny Sviridov, winner of the MA Festival Bruges Competition in 2017, has chosen to devote his first recording to the sonatas of Giuseppe Tartini. As heir to the Baroque tradition of the early eighteenth century, Tartini developed technical concepts much bolder than those of his predecessors, thus preparing the violin for the language of the Classical period. His treatise served as a model for Leopold Mozart and his reputation was still very much alive in the Romantic era, which continued to propagate the famous anecdote of his dream during which the Devil suggested to him how to perform reputedly impossible trills…
