Moments musicaux

Album by Sergei Vasilievich Rachmaninoff & Franz Schubert & Véronique Bonnecaze

Moments musicaux is a set of solo piano pieces by Russian composer Sergei Rachmaninoff, composed and published in 1896. Rooted in the late-Romantic piano tradition, the collection juxtaposes lyrical melodies, dense harmonies and virtuosic passagework to explore contrasts of mood and texture, and it occupies an early position in Rachmaninoff's oeuvre that points toward his later, larger-scale piano and orchestral works.
