Summary
"Just as Serge Rachmaninoff's piano virtuosity ranked him among the greatest pianists of the 20th century, his compositions for piano and orchestra won him an important position among modern composes. Among the major works that made his reputation are the first three piano concertos, reprinted here in one volume from authoritative full-score Russian editions. Rachmaninoff wrote the stirring Piano Concerto No. 1 in the years 1890-91, while he was still a young student at the Moscow Conservatory, and revised it nearly three decades later in 1917, when he began to devote his life mainly to his international career as a piano virtuoso. The immense and enduring success of the Piano Concerto No. 2, completed in 1901, has made this romantic work one of the most performed and recorded in the concerto literature, and one of the most familiar compositions in all of music. The powerful and expressive Piano Concerto No.3 was composed for a concert tour of America in the autumn of 1909, during which Rachmaninoff appeared with great success as composer, pianist and conductor. Like the first two concertos, it remains a repertoire favorite in concert halls around the world."-- from back cover
