“Most substantial here is the Violin Concerto by Vyacheslav Nagovitsyn. The influence of his teacher Shostakovich may be evident in the opening Sinfonia…but the hypnotic Ostinato and sardonic Finale hint at more individual expression…If Phantasmagoria by Vladislav Uspensky impresses more by its technical brilliance than musical substance, its cohesive progress from uneasy stasis to ethereal evanescence feels undeniable.”
