How about this sub-Straussian riot of a piece from Soviet composer Yuri Kochurov, available on the Northern Flowers label:

I was thoroughly surprised by the idiom of the Macbeth Symphony-I was expecting the sub-Shostakovichian fare typical of the era in which it was written. It's great fun, by the way. The shorter works with which the symphony is coupled on the Northern Flowers CD are more plainly influenced by Prokofiev and Kabalevsky.
Yes sub-Straussian indeed.
Does anyone have some biographical information about Yuri Kochurov?
There's a very persuasive review of the Northern Flowers CD by Nich Barnard at MusicWeb International (http://www.musicweb-international.com/classrev/2010/June10/Kochurov_Macbeth_NFPMA9981.htm), which puts a meagre amount of flesh on the bones. I've downloaded the tracks and have enjoyed not just the so-called Symphony (which is a riot, but it's no symphony), but also the smaller pieces.
