RACHMANINOV, S.: Piano Concertos Nos. 2 and 3 (Scherbakov, Russian State Symphony, Yablonsky)
One of the most popular romantic concertos of all time, Rachmaninov’s Piano Concerto No. 2, immortalized in the film Brief Encounter, is memorable for its bravura writing, profusion of long, surging melodies and luxuriant orchestration. The Piano Concerto No. 3, featured in the film Shine, is technically even more demanding and takes the romantic virtuoso concerto to its absolute peak.
