Interpretations on Record

BBC Radio 3
on BBC Radio 3

Stravinsky's Symphonyof Psalms was the composer's highly original response to a Koussevitsky commission for a symphony. He produced a work for chorus and orchestra with both elements on an equal footing. Jonathan Swain assesses how conductors on record have interpreted this unusual design. They include Markevitch,
Ansermet, Bernstein and Stravinsky himself.
