Rachmaninov, Sergei (1873-1943)

Description:

The complete Rachmaninoff transcriptions played by an Italian pianist. The Complete Piano Transcriptions of Rachmaninoff, who left many important works in transcription. Rachmaninoff's transcriptions, whether of his own or other works, are always constructed with respect for the original composer's intentions in terms of technique, harmony, and expression. While some, such as works by Kreisler and Tchaikovsky, are delicate, others, such as "Flight of the Bears" and "Polka by W.R.," demand virtuosity. All of the pieces here were written in the 1920s and 1930s, after Rachmaninoff's move to the U.S., just as the re-creation of the classics was gradually spreading to Russian composers, After graduating with honors from the Rossini Conservatory, he continued his studies in Imola. He has won prizes in many competitions, performed in major halls and festivals in Italy, and in recent years has actively expanded his activities abroad. He is a pianist to remember and to look forward to in the future. Tokyo M-Plus
