Extract

When Alexander Tcherepnin Died in 1977, he left a rich legacy of symphonic composition written over a major portion of this century. Of these works, the most important are the four symphonies and the Divertimento for orchestra. They are worthy companions of the symphonies of Prokofiev and Shostakovitch. The changes of style found in these five pieces correspond to similar changes found in other major composers of the period.
