Anna Zassimova invites us to take a third journey through the musical landscape of Russian destiny. This journey through the peculiarly Russian Ouroboros of the tormented twentieth century enables us to discover, once again, rare works and the uncharted environments in which they took root. All these works are parables of implacable destinies against which it seems futile to struggle, but which must be defied in order to follow the veiled path of the soul.
