An Early Evening Stroll

tue 17 may 2022 19:00 hour

Anton Arenski (1861-1906).

On today’s broadcast of An Early Evening Stroll, we take another look at the largely forgotten oeuvre of Russian composer Anton Arensky (1861-1906), colleague and friend of Tchaikovsky. Arensky was a student of Rimsky-Korsakov and helped him compose an opera. At age 22, Arensky wrote his First Symphony, a well orchestrated piece that one rarely hears these days. Almost ten years later he presented his Second Suite for two pianos, a colourful collection of light-hearted musical pieces.
