This fine performance of Liadov's masterpiece is enhanced by the appropriate and suitably atmospheric vision. The Enchanted Lake (along with Kikimora) premiered in St.Petersburg in Dec.1909. I'll let Nikolai Malko provide the little-known details of event: "I remember very well the first performance of 'Enchanted Lake', conducted by Siloti. The audience was actually transported by the enchanting sound and mood of this charming work...The audience acclaimed the composer with a great ovation and called loudly for him. He did not come. (After prolonged applause) finally Liadov appeared, walked slowly onto the platform and sheepishly took a bow. His manner was not a pretense. Liadov was a genuinely modest man".
