Rachmaninov plays and conducts, vol.1
S.Rachmaninov. Piano concerto No.2, Isle of the Dead, Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini
S.Rachmaninov, piano
Philadelphia Symphony orchestra conducted by L.Stokovsky
The first disc of our historic 8-volume collection that illustrates Rachmaninov's genius as pianist and conductor.
Philadelphia Orchestra conducted Leopold Stokowski (1 - 3, 5), Rachmaninov (4)
Vista Vera are serving admirers well with this set which restores to circulation the majority of his discs. The authorial voice we hear conducting the Isle of the Dead is intensely purposely but dramatic, powerful and tense. This famous recording and that of the Third Symphony (vol.5) show what we have missed through the restrictions on his conducting for RCA Victor. But enough remains to make a study of this body of work both necessary and important - both for students of Rachmaninov and for admirers of the repertoire and great pianism. a pianophile without Rachmaninov's recordings should not really sleep at night.

Melodiya presents piano works by Claude Debussy and Maurice Ravel recorded by the authors.
These unique phonographic documents date back to the 1910s-1920s, when music recording was at its dawn. Following the singers whose voices were so well reproduced by the phonograph, methods of piano music recording were invented. Among the first pianists who put their own interpretations on record were such composers as Rachmaninoff, Scriabin, Prokofiev, Stravinsky, Debussy and Ravel.
Debussy:
Children's Corner
D'un cahier d'esquisses
Estampe No. 2 - La soirée dans Grenade

Listenprecious gems from its vaults - Nikolai Medtner’s recordings.
“There is hardly another composer who takes a more solitary place in the family of Russian musicians,” wrote Medtner’s contemporary and music critic Vyacheslav Karatygin.
Medtner was born to and grew up in a highly intellectual family of German origin which settled in Russia long ago. After more than three decades of living abroad, he stayed a spiritually Russian musician until the end of his days. Medtner’s music couldn’t boast a great number of admirers, but it irrepressibly attracted deep and subtle, although very different artists such as Rachmaninoff and Myaskovsky.
Medtner’s music happily combines traditions of German and Russian culture. Along with Rachmaninoff and Scriabin, Medtner was a prominent interpreter of his own works and one of those who opened a new era of Russian piano music.
According to the outstanding musician, pianist and thinker Heinrich Neuhaus, Medtner as a pianist “created himself everlasting glory… That never ceasing feeling that he was not just a wonderful pianist but also a great musician and magnificent composer, that his thought and hearing entirely guided his fingers and phenomenal virtuosity, and that it was inspired pianism was particularly enjoyable”.
The first volume of the anthology of Medtner’s recordings includes his smaller pieces - Novellas, the cycle Forgotten Melodies and the genre of piano fairy tale invented by the composer. The recordings were made in 1930 to 1947 in Paris and London.
