Alexander Mosolov - Antireligious Symphonic Poem (Kondrashev, Orpheus Radio) (1931)

The first part of the poem used a hymn-like melody to represent an Orthodox service, which is later interrupted by chaotic revolutionary songs and anti-Christian poetry. Like Shostakovich's 2nd Symphony, the piece ends in a tonal, triumphant, but trite "proletarian" chorus.

Is this really Mosolov? I can't find anything about this piece.

What recording is this?
