With Ansermet and the Orchestre de la Suisse Romande. Without a doubt, the Second Symphony in B minor best reflects Russian feeling and temperament. The Scherzo, with its throbbing horns, march rhythms and thrilling woodwinds, is equally electrifying. The contemplative Andante is followed by a highly explosive Finale based on two Russian dance melodies which are widely varied during the course of the music.
Selections: Symphonies No. 2 & 3, Overture from Prince Igor.
