Dmitiri Kitaenko conducts Scriabin

Drawn from the worldwide holdings of Sony Classical Music and re-mastered in 24bit High Resolution Audio, these smart, desirable and collectible EU (Germany) pressed import multi-disc editions, replete with legendary artists, offer many of the finest, most sought-after recordings in the classical discography. The slender, shelf-friendly box frontages feature large, prominently displayed photos of the edition's featured artist, work listings at the back, with the CDs themselves housed in protective sleeves that divulge the recording specifics for each performance.

The new Masters programme also includes a complete set of the kaleidoscopically colourful symphonies of Scriabin, recorded in the early 1990s by the Frankfurt Radio Symphony Orchestra under the noted Russian conductor Dmitri Kitaenko. "The First Symphony is gloriously presented," wrote BBC Music Magazine, "with soloists and chorus in splendid voice in the final Hymn to Art."
