Piano Concerto No. 2 / Paganini-Rhapsody
Album by Sergei Vasilievich Rachmaninoff & Zoltán Kocsis & San Francisco Symphony & Edo de Waart
Piano Concerto No. 2 / Paganini-Rhapsody is an album of works by Sergei Rachmaninoff, featuring compositions from 1901 and 1934. The music exemplifies Rachmaninoff's late-Romantic style with expansive, emotive melodies, virtuosic piano writing set against lush orchestral textures, and the pairing highlights both the concerto that re-established his compositional voice and the later rhapsodic variations that explore inventive variation technique.
