Michael Juk of CBC has just created a post about Nikolai Korndorf, called Gone but not forgotten. I wanted to point this out because I think Nikolai was one of the great composers of the 20th century and his music has been neglected since his untimely death in 2001.
Some good news here – Valery Gergiev is conducting Nikolai’s cello concerto (Concerto Capriccioso), with Alexander Ivashkin on cello, this June in St. Petersburg, and Toccata Classics will be releasing his complete cello music.
