... Read more
The Russian composer Sergei Rachmaninov, considered by many to be the natural successor to Tchaikovsky, was responsible for some of the most powerful romantic works written in the first part of the 20th century. His first popular success came in 1892 with the Prelude in C sharp minor for solo piano, but it was his Second Piano Concerto (1901) that fully established him as a major composer. Its haunting themes are heard in the famous films Brief Encounter and The Seven Year Itch, and music from the Third Piano Concerto (1909) makes a profound impression in the film Shine. Extracts from these and Rachmaninov's other main compositions are performed by leading artists including the pianists Leif Ove Andsnes, Vladimir Ovchinikov, Cécile Ousset and Andrei Gavrilov, the singers Natalie Dessay and Nicolai Gedda, and the conductors Sir Simon Rattle, André Previn, Mariss Jansons and Stephen Cleobury

... Read more
The bonus CD-ROM that accompanies this great big box contains an essay by Juilian Haylock entitled "The Lonely Romantic," which puts all this rapturously beautiful music into context. One of the last great representatives of romanticism in Russian classical music, Rachmaninoff was also one of the leading pianists and conductors of his day; few composers have come close to his striking gift for melody and for exploring the expressive possibilities of the piano. Leonard Slatkin, Maria Popescu, Nils Franke, Nikolai Lugansky, Julian Thurber, Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, London Symphony Orchestra, Saint Louis Symphony Orchestra and Borodin Trio are among the prized performers here as you encounter the most complete collection of Rachmaninoff ever assembled on disc: the piano concertos and preludes, his songs and three operas, choral music, music for cello and piano, sonatas, transcriptions, symphonic dances, symphonic poems, vespers, duets his complete works!

... Read more
Personnel: Vytautas Sondeckis (cello); Idil Biret, Jenö Jandó (piano).Naxos' Chill with Rachmaninoff presents 12 of the composer's most relaxing compositions, including Piano Concerto No. 2 in C Minor: Adagio Sostenuto, Morceaux de Salon, Op. 10: Barcarolle in G Minor, Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini: Variation 18, and Vocalise in E Minor, Op. 34, No. 14. While the album's concept is simple, it features a good sampling from Rachmaninov's major works and alternates between large and small-scale compositions, all of which give the album an unexpected amount of depth and diversity. Sonata in G Minor for Cello and Piano, Op. 19: Andante and Mélodie in E, Op. 3, No. 3 are among the other highlights of this collection. It may not be the only Rachmaninov collection you'll ever need, but Chill with Rachmaninoff is still a pleasant and soothing one to have around. ~ Heather Phares

... Read more
Some of Franz Schubert's most popular scores lie in the realm of his chamber music, which the composer introduced to the world along with his songs in intimate Viennese gatherings dubbed "Schubertiades." This newly repackaged four-CD andante anthology serves as a virtual Schubertiade, as it showcases Schubert's chamber gems via classic recordings by some of the pre-war era's greatest musicians. The performances include, among others, Fritz Kreisler and Sergei Rachmaninoff in the "Grand Duo," Adolf Busch and Rudolf Serkin in the C Major Fantasie, the Cortot/Casals/Thibaud Trio in the B-flat Major Piano Trio, and the Pro Arte Quartet with Anthony Pini in the String Quintet. The rare vintage 78s were digitally remastered by Art & Son Studio in Paris using the 24-bit "CAP 440" technique. In its redesigned edition (with new slipcase), the deluxe 96-page book contains evocative images of the composer and rarely seen, painstakingly presented photos of the performers. The expanded texts — in English, French and German — include an introduction by Pulitzer Prize–winner Tim Page, an essay by Paul Turok, and detailed artist bios from "The New Grove Dictionary of Music and Musicians."
