¡Rachmaninoff Plays Chopin
¡Sergei Rachmaninoff (piano)
Description
[Machine Translation] Sergei Rachmaninoff, the greatest Russian composer of the 20th century, was also a virtuoso piano player (and an excellent conductor) who was not afraid of extreme technicalities. He began recording in 1919, the year he left Russia for the United States to escape the difficulties of the Revolution, and continued uninterruptedly until 1942, the year before his death, leaving behind 10 CDs of recordings for posterity. This album contains all of Rachmaninoff's favorite Chopin recordings (excluding transcriptions), including many piano recitals. It is an interesting album to hear how Rachmaninoff played Chopin in the first half of the 20th century, more than 70 years after Chopin's death, during the Chopin year, which marks the 200th anniversary of his birth. Recordings: February 18, 1930, April 5, 1927, April 13, 1925, etc.
