.. Symphony No. 2 Prelude |
| | Description: | John Wilson and Sinfonia of London release their
second album of Rachmaninoff. The Second
Symphony was mostly composed in Dresden â??
where Rachmaninoff was escaping the political and
professional pressures of Russia â?? in 1906 â?? 07. An
hourâ??s worth of music, the symphony is one of his
largest works after the operas, and is widely
viewed as one of his greatest works. It was possibly
of some significance to the composer, following
the less than auspicious début of his First
Symphony (which he withdrew after the
première). First performed in St Petersburg and
Moscow, conducted by the composer, the Second
Symphony was an immediate success with
audiences and critics alike, and remains a mainstay
of the orchestral repertoire to this day.
Rachmaninoff dedicated the score to his teacher
Sergei Taneyev, who was a pupil of Tchaikovsky.
Rachmaninoff composed the Prélude in C sharp
minor in 1892, originally for piano, at the
beginning of his career. Stokowskiâ??s orchestration,
performed here, whilst not the only one in
existence, is certainly the best known and arguably
the most successful.
The album is recorded in Surround Sound and is
available as a hybrid SACD, and in spatial audio. - .. SYMPHONY NO. 2John Wilson and Sinfonia of London release their second album of Rachmaninoff.
