Unustusse vajunud päev - A forgotten day
Unustusse vajunud päev - A forgotten day: Russian author's song (bard song); Aleksandr Ivashkevich, Kristo Käo; ERP Music Reviewed 27 April 2022, (★★★★) A completely charming disc where two Estonian performers provide an entrancing window into a Soviet Russian art-form that took place entirely outside the Soviet establishment This delightful disc introduced my to a performance style of which I was hitherto entirely unaware, the Russian bard song or author song, a singer-songwriter style influenced by the American folk-music revival, which took place outside of the Soviet establishment. On this disc from ERP music, Unustusse vajunud päev - A forgotten day, Georgian-born Estonian actor Aleksandr Ivashkevich and guitarist Kristo Käo perform a programme of bard song/author song stretching from the 1960s through to the present day. The disc does require some work, everything on the disc is printed in Russian and Estonian, whilst the ERP website has only a tracklisting and texts in English, but thanks to […]

Various artists (Earth)Mikael Tariverdiev composed music for the 1960s Soviet hit Goodbye, Boys! and hundreds more film and TV scores, but he is hardly known outside of Russia and movie-buff circles – this lavish three-disc set is the first anthology ever released in the west. The music is impossibly wistful and full of pastiche (chanson, big band, Piazzolla), but something about it gets under the skin. Seagulls and tinkly pianos segue to forlorn wordless melodies and shuffling rhythm sections. There are plenty of accordions, as well as slow swing from drummers I picture with long-dead cigarettes between their teeth. A hazy waltz from The Long Day twangs like surf-rock Shostakovich. The Last Romantic pairs fistfuls of Rachmaninovian chords with a yearning saxophone elegy. Some tracks stand alone better than others without their visual counterparts, but it’s clear that Tariverdiev was a master conjurer of smoke-filled moods. My favourite is the […]

A good concert season should provide variety in textures, and this has been the case in recent weeks. String ensemble, flute with strings, children´s choir, mixed and children´s choirs plus pianos and percussion, wind quintet, violin-piano duet, quartet for piano and strings, nonet...Not bad. The Franz Liszt Chamber Orchestra is an old friend of the Mozarteum (they were here in 1987, 1994 and 1996). Their return after 17 years was a logical idea, and they were accompanied by a star flutist that made his local debut: Emmanuel Pahud. As I have often written, "chamber orchestra" is a misnomer for a string ensemble; to bear that name it should comport also winds and have between about 30 and 45 players, ideal for the Haydn […]
