Sir Stephen Hough/Andrew Litton - Rachmaninoff: Piano Concertos 1-4 / Paganini Rhapsody

Sir Stephen Hough — Rachmaninov: Piano Concertos 1-4, Paganini Rhapsody

With the Dallas Symphony Orchestra, conducted by Andrew Litton

180-gram triple LP

Gramophone Award Winner 2005

Stephen Hough's four Rachmaninov Piano Concertos have long been viewed as reference recordings of this iconic repertoire, the standard by which others must be judged. Bolstered by the Dallas Symphony Orchestra under Andrew Litton, Hough made a conscious return to the fast and lean performance tradition of the composer himself, avoiding the sentimental "Hollywood" approach that had become so prevalent, for this triumphantly successful, awards-lavished Rachmaninov cycle. A 3LP set.
