31.05.01: Statement on the St. Petersburg State Academic Capella Symphony




I have worked with St. Petersburg State Academic Capella Symphony Orchestra and Choir in St. Petersburg, where we recorded my works “Symphony No 1”, “Adagio”, “Requiem”, “Raven”, “Carnaval” and also my three operas “Medea”, “Electra” and “Antigone”.

I had the opportunity to see in detail that this fine orchestra possesses a technique of a highest level, an unique sound and a strong “personality”.
It combines a fresh sound with a mature interpretation, power with spirituality, sensibility with strength and intensity with exaltation.

All the musicians and the choirists under the guidance of the father, mother and the sun Tchernuchenko have been wonderful. They possess everything needed for a great musical interpretation: loyalty, diligence, talent, responsibility, inspiration and an ongoing effort to become even better.
