This programmatic symphonic work with its battlefield participants – male-voice choir, bell chimes, percussion, and cannon-fire – requires the utmost from everyone involved, from the tutti strings right up to the balance engineer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe gratifying result of a production made with only the very best ingredients can now be enjoyed once again with this re-release of a \u003cspan class=\"caps\"\u003eDECCA\u003c\/span\u003e recording. The London Symphony Orchestra, led by Kenneth Alwyn, has achieved a remarkable feat, their rich timbre enhancing every nuance of this closely-knit score. Sonorous strings and polished brass wind passages ensure that the listener’s attention will be riveted right to the very last bar.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLess nerve-racking but certainly no less riveting in its beauty and lightness are the well-known Capriccio italien and the popular Marche slave. The purchaser of this LP can congratulate himself that he now possesses three of Tchaikovsky’s greatest showpieces.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e\n\t\u003cli\u003e180 gram LP w\/ Standard Sleeve\u003c\/li\u003e\n\t\u003cli\u003eRecording: May 1958 at Kingsway Hall, London by Arthur Lilley\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e Decca SXL 2001 -Artist-Kenneth Alwyn, The London Symphony Orchestra \/ Tchaikovsky\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHandling Note: **Please allow an additional 5 business days for this item's shipment.**\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInternal ID: JIT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Classical\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 8\/28\/19\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat Detail: LP Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Kenneth Alwyn, The London Symphony Orchestra \/ Tch","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53426947457208,"sku":"0AD4DP-FN71-NW","price":49.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0630\/9222\/8280\/files\/kenneth-alwyn-the-london-symphony-orchestra-tch-1812-overture-capriccio-italien-marche-slave_dOJB8.jpg?v=1777642108","url":"https:\/\/musicrecordshop.com\/products\/kenneth-alwyn-the-london-symphony-orchestra-tch-1812-overture-capriccio-italien-marche-slave","provider":"Music Record Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
