(Snowstorm) "Sviridov created music for the film that was epic, romantic, tinged with nostalgia and above all, tuneful, which illustrated superbly his love for Russia, its history and its cultural heritage. Snowstorm was massively successful worldwide and each time it is heard on radio, interest in the composer rises" (James Murray)
