"Sparky, strongly communicative Rachmaninov - and a bargain to boot. Kogan moulds genuinely compelling, authentically tangy accounts of these two masterworks, penetrating to the core of their homesick melancholy with often devastating candour." (Gramophone January 2009)
First CD release of these spectacular recordings of Sergei Rachmaninov's last two symphonic works, performed with virtuoso flair by the Moscow State Symphony Orchestra under the dynamic leadership of Pavel Kogan and captured in audiophile sonics by the legendary team of Marc Aubort and Joanna Nickrenz. "Sparky, strongly communicative Rachmaninov - and a bargain to boot. Kogan moulds genuinely compelling, authentically tangy accounts of these two masterworks, penetrating to the core of their homesick melancholy with often devastating candour." (Gramophone January 2009)
"Generous, inexpensive, big-hearted, broodingly coloured and impassioned."
