Evgeny Svetlanov - Stravinsky: Petrushka - Svetlanov: Poem for Violin (CD)

"Whoever has had the privilege of hearing a concert conducted by Evgeny Svetlanov at least once in his life has had the absolute musical Dionysian experience, that of the hurricane, of the breath-taking overflow, the quasi-mystical experience of a ritual trance in which the music becomes the sacred, the keystone of the entire universe! " Jean-Marie Brohm, Répertoire, 2002
