The magic of genuine Russian folk music“ – Tchaikovsky’s
Second Symphony bears the epithet “Little Russian” not
due to its slight scale (although it is indeed the shortest
of his six symphonies), but because many of its themes
originate in “Little Russia”. In the territory of the Tsar,
this was the designation for a region known abroad as
“Ruthenia”: the present-day Ukraine. The recording is
complemented by the famous Rococo Variations with
the young cellist Leonard Elschenbroich.
OehmsClassics is proud to be able to continue this
cycle – the recordings have received high praise and
are already being considered reference recordings by
some media representatives.
