Symphony no. 1

Album by Gavriil Popov & Norichika Iimori & Tokyo Symphony Orchestra

Symphony No. 1 is the first symphony by Soviet composer Gavriil Popov, completed in 1929. The work is large-scale and richly orchestral, blending late-Romantic, modernist and expressionist tendencies with dense textures and dramatic contrasts, and it stands as an early, contentious statement in Popov's career that drew attention in Soviet musical circles.
First released: 23rd August 2017
