"Valentin Silvestrovs music is just waiting to join the music of Henryk Gorecki or Arvo Part in popularity. Silvestrov's music is memorable for its metaphoric engagement with the past, nostalgia for a world of Mahlerian languor, and an affinity with minimalism. TNC has four recordings of his complete oeuvre for the piano. In addition, three other CDs of his various instrumental and vocal music have also been newly recorded or re-mastered from archival performances, including the first historic recordings of his major chamber orchestra works as conducted by Igor Blazhkov. ""... What kind of music is Anton Bruckner writing now? ...We will never hear [Bruckner] in this life, my friend. But the Ukrainian Valentin Silvestrov has surely captured an echo of that heartbreaking loveliness...Like the light still coming from a dead star, it is unreal but still there, magically shining."" American Record Guide September/October 1996 All four works in their premiere performances were conducted by Igor Blazhkov. Artists: Leningrad Philharmonic; Leningrad Chamber Orchestra; Perpetuum Mobile Orchestra; Kiev Chamber Orchestra; Nelli Lee, soprano; Valentyn Potapov, violoncello.
