Rachmaninov, Sergei (1873-1943) - Symphony No.1 : Vladimir Ashkenazy / Philharmonia - Import CD

Credits:

S. Prokofiev

Description:

Ashkenazy & Philharmonia Orchestra! The Rachmaninoff Cycle is about to begin! Vladimir Ashkenazy will make his first appearance in Signum Classics' "Philharmonia Orchestra Series" in a long time! As a project with the Philharmonia Orchestra, with which he has maintained a good relationship as a conductor laureate, Ashkenazy will start a new series of the complete symphonies by Rachmaninoff, who is synonymous with his own conducting career! Ashkenazy recorded the complete works with the Concertgebouw Orchestra in the 1980s and with the Sydney Symphony Orchestra in the 21st century, both of which are highly acclaimed recordings, so there are high expectations for the "Rachmaninoff Cycle" with the prestigious British orchestra. The "No. 1" which thrilled the audience at the Royal Festival Hall is a magnificent start to Ashkenazy's new Rachmaninoff! Tokyo M-Plus
