Symphony no. 5 is one of Glazunov's most popular and most frequently performed works. Although it is obviously in the tradition of the new St Petersburg school (and especially in that of Alexander Borodin) its structure andorchestration are rather unusual. Furthermore it contains some magnificent polyphonic passages.

Glazunov began to compose this work at the age of fifteen. His diary records: ?I composed and orchestrated the slow movement of Symphony no. 1 (?Andante?) in the summer of 1881 . . . The score of the symphony was completed by the autumn.? It was first performed in St Petersburg on 29 March 1882. Although the composer was still a schoolboy his symphony was the work of ?fully-fledged musician with great technical expertise.? (César Cui). Mily Balakirev once said to Tchaikovsky: ?Apart from Mendelssohn no one got off to such a good start as Glazunov.? In 1932 when the composer looked at his symphony fifty years after the first performance he remarked: ?Not a single note needs to bechanged.?

Glazunov's Organ Works which include intricate fugues and double fugues show that during his lifetime he was the only important Russian composer to write for the organ. His numerous works combine things which are original and genuinely Russian with a feeling for different aspects of life ranging from Slav melancholy to irresistible joie de vivre and the most sophisticated features of European music.

Élégie op. 44 for Viola and Piano-A precious gem of romantic Viola literature is now available in Henle quality. Thanks to the publisher’s good connections to Russian archives we were able to assess Glazunov’s autograph for the first timefor this first Urtext edition and uncover the discrepancies between the autograph and the first print. Written in 1893 for the Danish violist Franz Hildebrand the ?l?gie is one of the few originalworks of the 19th century for Viola and thus a welcome enrichment of the repertoire. Since the piece does not make any particularly high technical demands on the soloist the ?l?gie is ideally suited forteaching as well – and Tabea Zimmermann’s fingerings guarantee the best possible support.
