Our Take

Step aside, Tchaikovsky, there's a new ballet master in town, and his name is Aram Khachaturian. In this delightful compilation album, the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, under the direction of maestro Yuri Simonov, takes us on a whirlwind tour of Khachaturian's most beloved ballet scores.

First up, we have "Spartacus," a powerful and emotive piece that tells the story of the Thracian gladiator who led a slave revolt against the Roman Empire. From the haunting strings of the Adagio of Spartacus and Phrygia to the triumphant brass of the Gladiators' Entrance, this score is a true tour de force.

Next, we have selections from "Gayaneh," another of Khachaturian's masterpieces. From the playful Sabre Dance to the exotic Dance of the Young Kurds, this ballet is a feast for the ears. The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra truly shines in bringing these vibrant and colourful compositions to life.

Overall, this album is a must-have for any lover of classical music or ballet. The RPO and Yuri Simonov deliver performances that are both technically flawless and emotionally captivating. So grab your pointe shoes and get ready to dance along – because Khachaturian's music is impossible to resist. A truly enchanting listen from start to finish. Khachaturian would be proud.
