  • the works of the Russian conductor, pianist and composer Reinhold Glière (1875-1956) were much influenced by the 19th-century Russian romantic tradition.
  • these fascinating sketches vary considerably in style, from a serene chorale-like work to an agitato piece full of chromatic detail. Most, however, are gentle romantic works coloured with subtle harmonic touches.
