I Met You, My Love
''I Met You, My Love'' is a 2002 album of 'Old Russian Romances', light-classical Russian songs by baritone Dmitri Hvorostovsky in arrangements for the recording by Evgeny Stetsyuk, with Moscow Chamber Orchestra, and Russian folk ensemble Style of Five, directed Constantine Orbelian. It is Hvorostovsky's only commercial recording of the popular salon songs he sometimes uses as encores in recitals in Russia. The album was very popular in Russia, but was generally not well received in the western classical press. The Gramophone's reviewer noted that the expertise of the singer could not elevate most of the songs to the Russian art song repertoire.The Gramophone 2002- Volume 80, Issue 2 - Page 72 2002 "However sweetly Hvorostovsky sings it, he cannot make it seem more than kitschy, and as with most of the other songs ..."
