Program Notes

Kalinnikov’s First Symphony was a rousing success at its premiere in Kiev in 1897. The Finale provides a summation of the full symphony and is intensely national in character. Starting with a broad, sonorous melody, it offers contrasts in texture and color. Plaintive and dance-like motives evolve into a spirited and triumphant ending.

- Program note by Edward Harris for San Jose Wind Symphony concert program, 6 April 2013


Kalinnikov’s first symphony is an inspired work, national in style. It is highly melodious and beautifully written, and is generally considered to be the composer’s freshest and most popular work.

- Notes from Program Notes for Band


Symphony No. 1 was written in 1894 and 1895. Upon completing it, Kalinnikov sent the score to Semyon Kruglikov, his former harmony teacher and an influential music critic. Deeply impressed, Kruglikov arranged for the work’s performance at a concert in Kiev, where it enjoyed a tremendous success. Before long it was heard in Moscow, Vienna, Berlin, and elsewhere. After a period of popularity the symphony drifted to the margins of the standard orchestral repertory, except in Russia, where it has never lost favor.
