[Edit]

The Second Piano Concerto by Rachmaninov is a definitive concerto of the Romantic era, with lyrical melodies exchanged between a large orchestra and the soloist. The composer, Rachmaninov, was a celebrity pianist of his age and he premiered the concerto himself in 1901. In the years since that performance, it’s become a central work of the piano repertoire and its popularity has only increased after appearances in several films, including David Lean’s classic 1945 romance Brief Encounter. Here, Russian pianist Vladimir Ashkenazy shares his innate understanding of Rachmaninov’s style and is admirably matched by the grandeur of the London Symphony Orchestra under André Previn.
