Reviews

“ This recording from the opera house captures the exitedment of colorful performances from a close audience perspective. Voices are up on stage and the orchestra is in the pit, with a natural balance between them.”

Kal Rubinstein - Stereophile

“ While there’s no clear winner between the competing versions of Ruslan and Lyudmila, I prefer this new release. With one exception, its cast is equal to or significantly better than that on Philips. Vedernikov’s tempos work better in the long haul, too… PentaTone Classic’s new release makes a more convincing case for this most ungainly and beautiful of operas.”

Barry Brenesal - Fanfare

“This recording sets a standard, because in an interprtation like this one Glinka’s Ruslan and Lyudmilla must be counted amongst the most important operas of the 19th century.”

Uwe Schneider - Klassik.com

“A special thank to PentaTone for releasing this. I’ve waited a long time to hear Ruslan and Lyudmilla given proper treatment. The result is worth the wait.”

SA-CD.net

“What an absolutely wonderful recording! I love everything about it, the music, the performances, the sound quality, the acoustics of the venue.”

Russell Lichter - The Stereo Times

“A marvellous performance, historically informed and caught absolutely on the wing. How lucky the audience was to be there at the Bolshoi and how lucky are we now, to enjoy the immediacy of the event…The miracle of the score lies in the ability to deliver a coherent whole rather than a succession of “numbers”. Do try to hear this set, even if you own Gergiev- Vedernikov restores Ruslan, intact and complete to its rightful place.”

Colin Clarke - MusicWeb-International.com

“The recording uses SA-CD surround technology, and to my ears the most exciting result is not the enhanced spatiality and depth, but the way the recording captures the theatre’s unique acoustic.”

Andrew Farach-Colton - Gramophone magazine - July 2004

“The result? Elegant ballets, perfect rather than impressive voices, involved choirs: The true pleasure of simple things well done.”

Le Soir - 9 July 2004

“The Bolshoi give us Glinka’s colourful score complete in an exiting new recording.”

John Warrack - Gramophone magazine - July 2004
