Rachmaninoff: Symphony No. 2 | Antonio Pappano with the Staatskapelle Dresden

Dec 4, 2021 • A frenzy of timbres: Sergei Rachmaninoff's Symphony No. 2 in E minor, Op. 27, performed by the Sächsische Staatskapelle Dresden under the baton of Antonio Pappano. The concert took place in the Semperoper Dresden in 2018.

The second symphony by Russian composer Sergei Rachmaninoff (1873 - 1943) could also be called his "Dresden Symphony" since Rachmaninoff wrote the symphonic work in 1906/07 in Dresden, where his family had spent the winter months for three consecutive years. The premiere of Symphony No. 2 took place again in St. Petersburg in 1908 under the composer's direction and was a great success, which Rachmaninoff was in dire need of, since the premiere of his first symphony in 1897 had been a debacle and had plunged him into depression and a deep creative crisis.

All the more astonishing was the great success he had with his 2nd Symphony. This may be due, on the one hand, to the balance that characterizes the form of each of the four movements. But above all, it is the symphony's tonal colours that give it an incomparable radiance. Through lush orchestration and varied combinations of instrumental groups, the orchestra's tonal possibilities come into their own.

In the past, Rachmaninoff's Symphony No. 2 was often performed in an abridged version. Here, the Staatskapelle Dresden plays it completely authentically – in its unabridged original version and at the location of its creation.

Rachmaninoff : Piano Concerto No. 3 – Daniil Trifonov

Mar 6, 2018 • Daniil Trifonov performs Sergei Rachmaninoff's Piano Concerto No. 3 in D minor opus 30 with the Orchestre Philharmonique de Radio France conducted by Myung-Whun Chung. Live recording on June 19, 2015 at the Philharmonie de Paris.

Rachmaninoff’s Third Piano Concerto is one of the most challenging works of the piano repertoire. Despite the seeming simplicity of the first theme, it requires a great virtuosity from the performers, especially for the cadenza in the first movement. After playing it for the first time in a concert on 1909, Rachmaninov himself couldn’t play any other piece, because his fingers were suffering.

Putin will Villa in Weggis kaufen

Die Villa Sénar am Vierwaldstättersee 
TAGES ANZEIGER: Die Villa Sénar am Vierwaldstättersee schrieb auch russische Geschichte. Ein Verkauf an die Russen rückt nun näher.

Bevor er US-Bürger wurde, lebte der Komponist Sergei Rachmaninoff zehn Jahre lang in der Villa Sénar am Vierwaldstättersee. Russland will das Haus nun zu einer Gedenkstätte für den Komponisten machen.

Bei einem viertägigen Besuch in Moskau ist der Luzerner Regierungspräsident Guido Graf über die Pläne Russlands für einen Kauf der Rachmaninoff-Villa in Weggis LU informiert worden. Russland will bis am 20. Dezember 2013 den Kauf der Immobilie prüfen. Der Schweizer Botschafter in Moskau habe die Luzerner Delegation über die entsprechenden Pläne Russlands informiert, sagte der Luzerner Regierungspräsident Guido Graf auf Anfrage vor seiner Rückreise in die Schweiz.

Der russische Präsident Wladimir Putin hatte das Kulturministerium am 2. Oktober 2013 angewiesen, den Kauf der Villa in der Schweiz und des Nachlasses des Komponisten Sergei Rachmaninoff (1873-1943) zu prüfen, wie der Kreml bekannt gab. » | kpn/sda | Freitag, 22. November 2013
