  • Description

    Simon Simon Trpceski's recording of Rachmaninov's Piano Concertos Nos. 2 and 3 was one of the most acclaimed and best-selling classical releases of 2010. His frequent collaborations with Vasily Petrenko and the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra are justly celebrated. Together they complete the Rachmaninov canon with this highly-anticipated follow up of Concertos Nos. 1 and 4, and the Paganini Rhapsody.

    Rachmaninov Concertos 2 and 3 made the Top 10 of Billboard's Classical Chart and won a Diapason d'or de l'annee. Simon Trpceski will support the sequel with extensive touring and CD signings at which he regularly attracts hundreds of fans.

    Personnel: Simon Trpceski (piano), Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra, Vasily Petrenko (conductor)
