During this period, the orchestra appeared on several Currentzis recordings on the Alpha label, including one of his first departures from operatic repertory, his 2010 recording of the Shostakovich Symphony No. 14, Op. 135. The following year, Currentzis moved to the Perm Opera and Ballet Theatre, and MusicAeterna was reconstituted in that city, deep in Siberia, as Currentzis began to forge distinctive, highly dramatic interpretations of music from the Baroque to the early 20th century. MusicAeterna was signed to the Sony Classical label, releasing their first album there with Currentzis, a collection of arias by Rameau, in 2013. Recordings of Mozart operas on Sony Classical spread the orchestra's fame internationally (and in several cases garnered operatic direction awards for Currentzis).
In 2017 Currentzis and MusicAeterna released a recording of Tchaikovsky's Symphony No. 6 in B minor, Op. 74 ("Pathétique"), on Sony Classical. By that time, the orchestra was in demand on the concert circuit apart from operatic productions. Currentzis and MusicAeterna have performed in Berlin, Paris, Lisbon, Athens, Moscow, Saint Petersburg, Vienna, Amsterdam, London, and Baden-Baden, as well as in their home city of Perm. Their repertory ranges from Baroque choral music to Russian music and contemporary music, and they have toured with a concert version of Purcell's opera Dido and Aeneas. In 2016, MusicAeterna became the first Russian orchestra to open the venerable Salzburg Festival. ~ James Manheim, Rovi
