The Bulgarian conductor and composer Emil Tabakov (born 1947) follows in the footsteps of such musicians as Gustav Mahler and Richard Strauss, being active as both composer and conductor. Like Mahler and Strauss, he prefers to write for large forces and now has nine symphonies to his name. Again like Mahler (more than Strauss, at any rate), Tabakov’s symphonies explore the darker side of the human spirit in epic scores as austere as they are powerful. The first volume of the complete Tabakov editions is the world premiere recording of his atmospheric and expansive Symphony No. 8 (2007–9), where the dynamism suppressed in the first two movements is released in a cathartic discharge of energy in the finale. The ebullient Five Bulgarian Dances provide a complete contrast, taking Balkan folk-rhythms as the basis for their pile-driving vigour. © SM/Qobuz
