Review by Bethariana Citra

Album Review: Стравинский Онеггер by Курt Зандерлинг & Co. – A Soviet-Era Sonic Adventure Let’s cut to the chase: if you’re into classical music that feels like it was written for an alien ambassador’s cocktail party, this album is your jam. Стравинский Онеггер (say that five times fast) brings together Igor Stravinsky and Arthur Honegger’s brainy compositions under the baton of Kurt Sanderling with the Leningrad Philharmonic Symphony Orchestra. Released on Мелодия in the USSR, this record has all the hallmarks of Soviet-era excellence—minus any propaganda speeches before track one. Now, let’s zoom in on two standout tracks because ain’t nobody got time to review every single note: Track 1: "Tempo Giusto" This piece hits you right away like a polite slap across the face—it’s serious but not trying too hard to impress. The strings glide along with precision while brass sneaks in like they’ve got something to prove. What makes this track unforgettable? It’s got swagger without being obnoxious about it. Imagine walking through Red Square at dawn, feeling both tiny and mighty at the same time. That’s “Tempo Giusto” for ya. Oh, and just when you think it’s gonna get predictable, BAM! There’s a twist in the melody that’ll make you sit up straighter than Lenin’s statue. Track 3: "Con Moto" If “Tempo Giusto” is the confident older sibling, then “Con Moto” is its quirky cousin who shows up uninvited but steals the show anyway. This movement buzzes with energy—it’s like watching a bunch of caffeinated bees orchestrate a heist. The woodwinds are chirping their little hearts out, and the percussion adds these subtle booms that feel oddly satisfying. You won’t forget this track anytime soon because it’s playful yet sharp, kind of like vodka mixed with honey. Too sweet? Maybe. But also kinda perfect. --- The rest of the album doesn’t disappoint either. From Honegger’s Symphony 5 “Di Tre Re” to Stravinsky’s Dumbarton Oaks Concerto, there’s enough variety here to keep even the pickiest audiophiles entertained. And props to Maestro Sanderling—he wrangles those complex rhythms like a pro sheepdog herding musical sheep. Here’s the kicker though: listening to this album feels like stepping into a time machine set to Cold War-era USSR. Sure, it’s technically flawless, but there’s also this weird vibe of resilience lurking beneath the notes. Like everyone involved knew they were making art that mattered, even if the world outside wasn’t always so kind. So, would I recommend Стравинский Онеггер? Absolutely. Just don’t expect anything chill or background-music-y. This is the kind of album that demands your attention—and maybe a strong cup of tea afterward. Or vodka. Your call. Final thought: If aliens ever invade Earth, we should totally blast this album at them. Either they’ll be impressed by our sophistication, or confused enough to leave us alone. Win-win!

Interesting fact about Album

Here’s something cool: the album *Стравинский Онеггер* by Курт Зандерлинг and the Симфонический оркестр Ленинградской гос филармонии is a hidden gem from the USSR. It blends modern classical styles with incredible precision. One standout track is the *Concerto In Es "Dumbarton Oaks"*. This piece, originally composed by Stravinsky, was named after the estate where it premiered. The recording showcases the orchestra's sharp dynamics and Зандерлинг’s masterful conducting. It’s wild to think this was released under the Soviet label Мелодия during a time when artistic expression faced so many restrictions. Yet, here we are, decades later, still talking about it.
