Symphony no. 3 / Symphonic Dances

Album by Sergei Vasilievich Rachmaninoff & Российский национальный оркестр & Mikhail Pletnev

Symphony No. 3 and Symphonic Dances are orchestral works by Sergei Rachmaninoff, completed in 1936 and 1940 respectively. Both pieces exemplify Rachmaninoff's late-romantic harmonic language and orchestral colour, with the symphony forming part of his late symphonic output and the Symphonic Dances standing as his final major work that synthesises his melodic lyricism with rhythmic drive and dance-inflected textures.
