Provenance

Where it came from

This recording was released in 1989 by the German label Pilz, a company known for producing budget-friendly classical music collections during the late 1980s and early 1990s. The disc pairs two pillars of the nineteenth-century Russian ballet repertoire: excerpts from Ludwig Minkus’s score for Paquita and Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky’s celebrated music for The Sleeping Beauty. The Bolshoi Theatre Orchestra, a cornerstone of the Russian performing arts tradition, provides the performance, reflecting the authentic Moscow style associated with these works.

The production represents the era's widespread efforts to digitize and democratize access to the classical canon through the newly emerging compact disc format. The design reflects the utilitarian, minimalist aesthetic common to Pilz releases of that period, which focused on affordability and portability for the casual listener rather than the collector's market. While it lacks the detailed liner notes of premium labels, it serves as a straightforward, functional document of the Bolshoi's repertoire at the time.
