odivatina,
hvorostovsky has a disk with a pianist named arkadiev called 'russia
cast adrift'. the songs of the composer sviridov are beautiful. the
singer is far more involved with this music as i think it suits his nature
which, i think is something more modern than the repertoire we hear him in
most often. comparing his performance on this disc to his other stuff
reminds me of my impressions of hearing fischer-dieskau in britten's 'war
requiem'. it was clear the latter artist was affected by his own wartime
experience.
