Moments musicaux

Album by Sergei Vasilievich Rachmaninoff & Vladimir Ashkenazy

Moments musicaux, Op. 16, is a set of six solo piano pieces by Russian composer Sergei Rachmaninov, composed and published in 1896. The pieces employ late-Romantic piano writing characterised by rich harmonic language, sweeping melodies and technical virtuosity, and they represent an early consolidation of Rachmaninov's mature piano style within his post-Conservatory output.
