Season Spotlight Composer
Sergei Rachmaninoff (1873-1943)

Rachmaninoff was a Russian composer, pianist, and conductor, one of the last great champions of the Romantic style of European classical music. Rachmaninoff is regarded as one of the most influential pianists of the 20th century. He had legendary technical facilities and rhythmic drive, and he also had the ability to play complex compositions upon first hearing.

Not only have Rachmaninoff's works become part of the standard repertoire, but their popularity among both musicians and audiences has, if anything, increased since the middle of the twentieth century, with some of his symphonies and other orchestral works, songs and choral music recognized as masterpieces alongside the more familiar piano works.
