The album features transcriptions of piano music, with the notable exception of Shostakovich's Eighth String Quartet, Op. 110.
The music on this album spans a turbulent seventy years of Russian history, from pre-revolutionary opulence to the Soviet soundscape.
This recording was made possible by the generosity of Septura's Friends and Supporters, including Christopher Bostock OBE.
This album, "Music for Brass Septet • 3," is part of a series by Septura, with Volumes 1 and 2 previously released on Naxos.
Septura redresses a lack of original music for brass by these composers by performing transcriptions of their works.
