From the time Glazunov entered the St. Petersburg Conservatory at a young age, he astonished his professors (who included Rimsky-Korsakov) and the leading musicians of the day with his ear and his exceptional musical abilities. Mélodie No. 1, Op. 20, is an eight-minute work that is a lovely outpouring of calm, lyrical music. It has a touch of Russian melancholy and an accompaniment with some rippling effects that suggest that here, the soul finds peace in a lakeside or woodland setting. It is performed by the Moscow Philharmonic Symphony Orchestra with Mstislav Rostropovich, one of the greatest cellists of the 20th Century.
