Erich Kunzel & Cincinnati Pops Orchestra
Recorded on April 11, 2005 at Music Hall in Cincinnati, Ohio.
──────────
Kunzel says that �This disc is steeped in the rich musical language of Russia and includes recognizable orchestral classics such as Borodin�s Polovtsian Dances and dances from Tchaikovsky�s The Nutcracker and Swan Lake. We�ve also included Rimsky-Korsakov�s brilliantly orchestrated Capriccio Espagnol as well as music by the 20th century composers Khachaturian and Prokofiev.�
The material on Russian Nights seems perfectly suited for Kunzel and the Cincinnati Pops. They play these well known Russian favorites with energy and passion. The dances from The Nutcracker and Swan Lake are favorites here but you�ll also enjoy the orchestra�s performances of Polovtsian Dances, Capriccio Espagnol and the Love Theme from Spartacus.

New upload with 11 tracks: #05 to #09 (Capriccio Espagnol) joined in a single one to avoid the gaps at the cut points.
With big thanks to all who shared other titles of this great conductor and orchestra. Enjoy.
I’ve never really heard much of any of this newer Cincinnati Pops(this one included)so I’m in uncharted waters. I look forward to listening.
I’ve reuploaded the MP3 set with the five tracks of Capriccio Espagnol joined in a single one to avoid the gaps introduced by the MP3 encoding (addition of short silences at the beginning of the tracks and the loss of short fragments at the end). The rest of tracks didn’t need it because they are individual recordings and their cut points are in areas of silence.
Thank you very much, kooke!
