"Editor's Choice ... all the markers for success are there in the first few minutes of the symphony ... Bychkov’s Russian roots make him mindful of Tchaikovsky’s classicism, the emotion always 'contained' until it can be contained no more ... a very fine performance, then, no question... supplemented by a Romeo & Juliet of similar qualities."
- Gramophone
With this album, Russian-born conductor Semyon Bychkov kicks off his Tchaikovsky Project, a long-term collaboration with the Czech Philharmonic which will encompass all of Tchaikovsky’s symphonies. The first installment in the series features the Symphony No. 6 "Pathétique" coupled with the Romeo & Juliet Fantasy Overture.
"What is this music that we love so deeply if not our beloved friend? I’ve loved Tchaikovsky’s music ever since I can remember. Like all first loves this one never died."
- Semyon Bychkov
