From Perotin to Prokofiev (and beyond), performed by Caruso to Khatia, it's all here.

question or two, or three.......

Gergiev - is he not the Russian composer, being the one on my White Nights cd with Kirov being the orchestra? (I'd check,but I'm at the office hard at work here :) So, this same conductor and symphony do the Romeo and Juliet deal too? And it was on vinyl? How about that CD, can you give me any info on it so I may track it down? Or do I just ask the local music store to get Romeo & Juliet and specify Gergiev as conductor with the Kirov orchestra?

Now, I'm assuming Prokofiev is Russian, so that would be another case of a Russian orchestra being conducted by a Russian conductor, playing music of a Russian composer? Makes sense to me!

If memory serves me correctly, you have that White Nights, but under a different name as White Nights was for the American market?

BTW - Where are you from Rob? The Netherlands ring a bell for some reason..... Good ole Holland, home of my favorite band - The Legendary Pink Dots!
