About

These three recordings cement the bond between the award-winning composer Richard Danielpour and the conductor Misha Rachlevsky, one of the composer’s most dedicated and perceptive interpreters. It was Rachlevsky who gave the American premiere of Symphony for Strings, a transcription of the Sixth String Quartet – a work saturated in farewells, complete with a hymn and variations. Talking to Aphrodite is the result of a collaboration between Danielpour and the writer Erica Jong, while Kaddish addresses the eternal issues of life, death and eventual peace.

January/February 2020

All three works on the disc are masterpieces, all deserving of the closest attention, and all dating from the past few years. [Aphrodite] Danielpour translates the anxieties, concerns, fears, and heartache of Jong’s unnamed woman into music of burnished beauty and radiant hues. Naxos is to be congratulated for its ongoing support for one of the great composers of our time. They obviously sent their best team to Moscow to record this music; the engineering is immaculate, the sound stunning.
