Mirga Gražinyte-Tyla: Weinberg Symphonies Nos. 2 & 21 (CD)
The Lithuanian conductor Mirga Gražinyte-Tyla's release of an album devoted to Mieczyslaw Weinberg’s music. It showcases
one of Weinberg’s earliest compositions, the Second Symphony for strings of 1946, and the Symphony No.21 “Kaddish”,
completed in 1991, his haunting memorial to the victims of the Warsaw Ghetto. Kremerata Baltica perform Symphony No.2 and
joins the CBSO for No.21.
The violin solos in the latter work are played by Gidon Kremer. Gražinyte-Tyla, the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra’s music director since 2016, is convinced that listeners will be deeply affected by the composer’s works, which bear witness not only to the variety of his output but its consistently high artistic quality.
