Glazunov began to compose this work at the age of fifteen. His diary records: ?I composed and orchestrated the slow movement of Symphony no. 1 (?Andante?) in the summer of 1881 . . . The score of the symphony was completed by the autumn.? It was first performed in St Petersburg on 29 March 1882. Although the composer was still a schoolboy his symphony was the work of ?fully-fledged musician with great technical expertise.? (César Cui). Mily Balakirev once said to Tchaikovsky: ?Apart from Mendelssohn no one got off to such a good start as Glazunov.? In 1932 when the composer looked at his symphony fifty years after the first performance he remarked: ?Not a single note needs to bechanged.?

Glazunov's Organ Works which include intricate fugues and double fugues show that during his lifetime he was the only important Russian composer to write for the organ. His numerous works combine things which are original and genuinely Russian with a feeling for different aspects of life ranging from Slav melancholy to irresistible joie de vivre and the most sophisticated features of European music.

The Violin Concerto op. 82 is one of Glazunov?s best-known works. Since the first performance in 1905 conducted by the composer when Leopold Auer was the soloist virtually all the great violinists have had it in their repertories. The structure of the work was fairly unconventional for its time. The lyrical and romantic first movement is followed without a break (attacca) by the striking and virtuoso second movement with its characteristic ?alla caccia? themes.

Ballett in einem Akt und vier Bildern von Marius Petipa-Marius Petipa created the ballet The Seasons (1899) on the basis of a symphonic work by Alexander Glazunov. The piece does not really have a plot and its four tableaux merely consist of choreographed representations of winter spring summer and autumn.

Music Minus One Alto Saxophone-Alexander Glazunov one of the great masters of late Russian Romanticism was fascinated by the saxophone and by jazz. In 1934 he wrote this beautiful saxophone concerto which has become a classic combining romanticism with modern idioms as well. Erland von Koch's 1958 saxophone concerto is filled with experimental modern tonalities and fantastic effects for the saxophone. Both are must-haves for the serious saxophonist. Includes a printed music score on high-quality ivory paper informative liner notes and a compact disc featuring the concerti performed twice: first with soloist then again with orchestral accompaniment only minus you the soloist. The compact disc hasbeen indexed voluminously indexed for your practice and performance ease.

Par GLAZOUNOV ALEXANDER / DABCZYNSKI ANDREW (Arr.). Both the bleak Russian midwinter landscape and the joyful celebration of a fall harvest festival are conveyed in this string arrangement by Andrew H. Dabczynski, of Autumn and Winter from Alexander Glazunov's ballet The Seasons. The expressive contrasts in this motivating set will make it a favorite of all. Optional parts for more advanced students, as well as supplementary percussion and piano parts make it an excellent concert choice for intermediate or even upper-level orchestras.

Le musicien Alexander Glasunov (1865 1936) de Saint-Pétersbourg doit sa carrière musicale à son compatriote compositeur Milij Balakirev qui l'a mis en contact avec Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov en 1880 pour des études privées. Seulement deux ans plus tard Glasunov a fait sensation avec la première mondiale de sa Première Symphonie, et très vite, il était un compositeur renommée nationale et internationale. Dans les années suivantes, il compose la musique rapidement symphonique et de chambre fonctionne avant en 1899, il a été nommé premier professeur de l'instrumentation, alors directeur du Conservatoire de Pétersbourg. Il a ensuite dû consacrer plus de temps à ses tâches pédagogiques et organisationnelles.'Chant du ménestrel' op. 71 a été créé en 1890. Il s'agit d'un paramètre lyrique et expressive, mais un peu mélancolique qui témoigne des qualités mélodiques du compositeur - un récital idéal ou rappel pièce. / Violoncelle Et Piano

Written in 1934 by Alexandre Glazounov (1865-1936) this Eb Concerto for Alto-Saxophone is a fourteen-minute piece dedicated to Sigmud M. Rasher a famous Saxophonist and soloist. Initially composed for Saxophone and Strings there was no mention of a second composer even though the 1936 publication adapted for Saxophone and Piano mentioned the name by André Petiot (1886-1976). The concerto starts with an Allegro moderato in 4/4 followed by an Andante transition mainly in C flat major at 3/4 and ending on a Fugato in 12/8. The first performance of this concerto in public occurred after the death ofits author in Paris. Alexandre Glazounov (1865-1936) is a famous Russian romantic composer. Considered as a prodigy and mentored by Belyayev he composed ballets concertos symphonies and later became director of the Saint Petersburg Conservatory. He had a strong influence on Stravinsky's and Shostakovich's careers and died near Paris in 1936. This concerto is a classical piece of the Saxophone romantic repertoire.

Glasunov composé ce paramètre choral solennel comme une forme de félicitations pour le mariage de deux de ses amis. Le caractère énergique et joyeux de la musique est dans un charmant contraste à l'ensemble du texte à la musique, un doux poème romantique par Vasily Shukovsky qui décrit les miracles de l'amour. / Choeur Mixte A Cappella
