Ivan ShpillerAbout
One of his most famous works ‘The Enchanted Lake’ is suffused with a Debussian soundscape. This work, like ‘Kikimora’ (about a tiny thimble sized human-hating witch who listens to stories told by her cat) were intended to be incorporated into operas that were either never started or never finished.
Liadov was the first composer Diaghilev asked for a ballet on the Russian folktale ‘The Firebird’. Liadov’s legendary laziness saw to it that he never completed the commission – another pupil of Rimsky Korsakov, the young Igor Stravinsky, was asked instead and made it his first major ballet success.
Liadov’s research into folk music, another thing he had in common with Grieg, laid the foundations for other composers - including Bartok, Kodaly and Vaughan Williams - to preserve and exploit the rich musical heritage of folk music in Europe.
Recorded in 2001.
