Composer Reinhold Glière is lesser-known even in Russia, but his songs are well worth digging into! They are available through IMSLP; since recording this episode, IMSLP now has the disclaimer that only the pieces before 1928 are public domain in the US, which seems to include all of his Romances (Russian art songs). If you are interested in the Azerbaijani traditional opera style that he created, the aria from Shakh-senem is available on YouTube.
Recordings featured in this episode, performed by Maika Madison, baritone, Toni Marie Palmertree, soprano, and Ellen Rissinger, pianist:
- Я Атлас (I, Atlas)
- Русалка (Rusalka)
- Как светла, как нарядна весна (How light and elegant is the spring)
Performances recorded at Carnegie Mellon University's Recording Studio in Pittsburgh, PA, and The Camp Recording Studio in Elizabethtown, PA.
