Moments Musicaux

Album by Sergei Vasilievich Rachmaninoff & Elena Rozanova

Moments Musicaux is a set of six solo piano pieces by Sergei Rachmaninov, published in 1896. The pieces combine virtuosic pianism, expressive lyrical melodies and rich late-Romantic harmonies, representing a mature example of Rachmaninov's early compositional voice and bridging the Romantic tradition with his later large-scale works.
