Sergei Rachmaninoff was one of the most beloved composers of the 20th century.   His music is redolent of his Russian homeland, and it sings long, lush melodies that define the term “romantic.”   Everyone who knows and loves his piano concertos will enjoy these lyrical and dynamic works for orchestra.   The Symphonic Dances in recent years have become one of Rachmaninoff's most-performed scores.   “Vocalise” is one of the great classical melodies, and is hummable by everyone.   Grammy nominated in 2003 for Best Engineered Album - Classical; Keith O. Johnson, engineer.
