  • Description

    Rachmaninov's final work - and the only one composed fully in the United States - was the Symphonic Dances. It embraces jazz elements and ecstatic expressiveness and is both a valediction and a summation of his creativity. The Isle of the Dead is a lamentation utilising a variant of the Dies irae - it is a stirring, transformative work that begins and ends in stillness. The early Caprice bohemien and Scherzo in D minor complete this programme of Leonard Slatkin's admired Rachmaninov recordings on VOX, heard here newly remastered from the original tapes. The Elite Recordings for VOX by legendary producers Marc Aubort and Joanna Nickrenz are considered by audiophiles to be amongst the finest sounding examples of orchestral recordings.
