Phenomenal Russian pianist Daniil Trifonov traverses the four piano concertos of his musical idol, Sergei Rachmaninov, accompanied by Yannick Nézet-Séguin and The Philadelphia Orchestra. Brimming with passion, spirituality and technical fireworks, the journey represents an Olympian test for the interpreter while offering an intimate chronicle of life transformed by social, political and cultural currents at the turn of the 20th century. Trifonov’s virtuosity and poetic devotion to these concerti and the Paganini Rhapsody is augmented by his own Rachmaninov transcriptions.
**In addition to the 3 CDs, this edition includes a Blu-ray disc which offers the concerti and transcriptions on breathtaking pure audio format.**
