Schnittke: Symphony No. 1, an epic symphony. This powerful work established him as a leader of Soviet modern music.
With Åke Lännerholm, trombone, Ben Kallenberg, violin and Carl-Axel Dominique, piano. Royal Stockholm Philharmonic Orchestra strings, Leif Segerstam, conductor.
Third and fourth movements, and applause in one file (attacca).
BBC Music Web: outstanding.
