Weinberg / Siberian Symphony Orchestra / Vasilyev- Weinberg: Orchestral Music, Vol. 2 (CD)
In the twenty years since his death the star of the Polish-born Moscow-based Mieczyslaw Weinberg (1919-96) has risen rapidly: his music - a highly individual amalgam of the Jewish idioms of his youth and the style of his mentor and friend Dmitry Shostakovich - is now seen as one of the most distinctive contributions to twentieth-century music. This further installment in the Toccata Classics examination of his output couples a mature dance-based score - not performed before this recording - with his last symphony, orchestrated after his death by the composer Kirill Umansky.
