Rachmaninov: Concerto nº 4 (1926) / Scriabine: Prométhée

This 1926 recording features performances by the Russian pianist and composer Sergueï Rachmaninov. Musically it juxtaposes late-Romantic piano concerted writing with the colouristic, mystical orchestral language of early 20th-century Russian modernism, emphasising expansive, lyrical piano lines, rich chromatic harmony and a broad orchestral palette that reflect Rachmaninov's late-period compositional tendencies and the broader stylistic shifts of the era.
