Rachmaninov - Piano Concertos 1-4 Ashkenazy & LSO (1995) FLAC

Please seed! Sergei Vasilievich Rachmaninoff; 1 April 1873 - 28 March 1943) was a Russian composer, pianist, and conductor. Rachmaninoff is widely considered one of the finest pianists of his day and, as a composer, one of the last great representatives of Romanticism in Russian classical music. Early influences of Tchaikovsky, Rimsky-Korsakov, and other Russian composers gave way to a thoroughly personal idiom that included a pronounced lyricism, expressive breadth, structural ingenuity, and a tonal palette of rich, distinctive orchestral colors. The piano is featured prominently in Rachmaninoff's compositional output. He made a point of using his own skills as a performer to explore fully the expressive possibilities of the instrument. Even in his earliest works he revealed a sure grasp of idiomatic piano writing and a striking gift for melody. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sergei_Rachmaninoff Vladimir Ashkenazy (July 6, 1937) is a Russian conductor and pianist. He is currently Principal Conductor and Artistic Advisor of the Sydney Symphony Orchestra.
