Conductor

Igor Markevitch

About

An extensive array of Markevitch’s stereo recordings spanning from 1958 to 1972, this set celebrates the maestro’s attention to detail and his great respect for the dynamics, rhythm and orchestral colour of the score.

An eminent conductor, he was much admired for his interpretations of the French, Russian and Austro-German repertoire, and of twentieth-century music in general.

Markevitch put his career as an eminent avant-garde composer aside to become a prominent and brilliant conductor as this collection displays.

His quick temper reflected in his music in sharp emotional shifts, yet his performances were meticulously prepared and followed the composer's directions with exceptional care.
