Rachmaninoff: Piano Concertos 1-4; Paganini Rhapsody [3LP]

Stephen Hough/Andrew Litton/Dallas Symphony - Rachmaninoff: Piano Concertos 1-4; Paganini Rhapsody [3LP]

Stephen Hough’s four Rachmaninov Piano Concertos have long been viewed as reference recordings of this iconic repertoire the standard by which others must be judged. Bolstered by the Dallas Symphony Orchestra under Andrew Litton Hough made a conscious return to the fast and lean performance tradition of the composer himself avoiding the sentimental ‘Hollywood’ approach that had become so prevalent for this triumphantly successful awards-lavished Rachmaninov cycle. 3-LP set with 2-page insert.
