Sergei Rachmaninoff

1873  –  1943

Sergei Rachmaninoff carried the Romantic piano tradition into the twentieth century. His Préludes, Études-Tableaux, Moments musicaux, and two sonatas are huge, dense, lyrical works built for a hand the size of his own.

The Op. 23 and Op. 32 préludes are concert standards, and the second sonata in B-flat minor is a reference virtuoso work.
