Russian Philharmonic Orchestra. Sergei Skripka, Conductor
The first two albums of Russian Film Music were recorded by the Russian Philharmonic Orchestra in 2000 and 2002, released by Belair music. This orchestra was originally assembled for recording in the early 90s. Many musicians were from Fedoseyev�s Moscow Radio Symphony Orchestra, which guaranteed the top quality of the music making. The producers can�t afford or unwilling to hire Fedoseyev�s orchestra with its own name, but cleverly recruited most of its musicians into a recording ensemble. Russia�s economy at that time wasn�t very good and the musicians eager to join the recording sessions to make extra money, similar to the situation in Prague.

This third album from the series took seven years to materialize. Instead of re-recording themes or selections, Belair dug into the archives and selected 26 pieces recorded from 1932 to 2004, by the studio orchestra. It would be nicer to include the conductors� name. The amazing outcome from the research is to provide an extra DVD (85 min) of all the clips from which the music was fitted in. This is fairly new release, so please don�t ask for FLAC. Purchase a copy to support the label and you�ll get the DVD as well.

I�d like to include another album featuring re-recorded Russian Film Music and other popular selections, Russian Pops. The audiophile label PopeMusic seems no longer active. It made some Russian and western classical music recordings during the mid 1990s, mostly with then newly established �Young Russia� Symphony Orchestra, under a great conductor, Mark Gorenstein. Some tracks on this CD were same from the Belair discs, but better recorded. Listen to the climax of the Spartacus adagio, it will blow your roof away.
