“…This recording can, hopefully, continue to project Tishchenko’s reputation beyond Russia, where he is a revered composer in post-war Russia. He seems to have continued his teacher’s penchant for ambiguous messages in his music that makes for fascinating listening. The Harp Concerto is a good example; so are his many symphonies and choral works. As such, he deserves a much higher profile in the world’s music centres, and this CD can be easily recommended as an introduction to his large output.” ****
