SERGEI RACHMANINOFF

Sergei Rachmaninoff, the virtuoso. A world-class pianist, he followed in the footsteps of great pianist-composers: like Chopin, he composed Études and Preludes, like Schubert he composed Moments Musicaux.

A kaleidoscopic presentation of the composer through selected miniature works: études-tableaux, and compositions with a wider artistic intention. In the preludes and the musical moments, innermost feelings and confessions. Romantic heroism, tenderness, and stormy, desperate emotions. Sounds of breathtaking beauty. Phrases that hold us spellbound.
