Sergej Rachmaninoff
Symphony No. 3, a-minor op. 44
Dortmund Philharmonic Orchestra
Gabriel Feltz
Catalog number 21105
"Rachmaninoff’s third symphony communicates, in a very moving way, the life-long struggle of one of Russia’s greatest musicians with this genre. The result is… absolutely magnificent: the musical inspiration is overflowing; the themes and melodies are, as always by Rachmaninoff, inimitable; but more especially, the many changes of mood, achieved by an extremely artistic instrumentation, are unique." Gabriel Feltz
