STOKOWSKI conducts Tchaikovsky (1944)

Album by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky & NBC Symphony Orchestra & Leopold Stokowski

STOKOWSKI conducts Tchaikovsky is a 1944 album of music by Russian composer Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky conducted by Leopold Stokowski. The recordings present Romantic orchestral repertoire rendered in a mid-20th-century symphonic style with rich string sonorities, emphasised brass and expansive phrasing, and exemplify Stokowski's mid-career efforts to adapt standard repertoire to contemporary recording practices and concert presentation.
