VOX Classics - NEW RELEASES - Leonard Slatkin conducts Rachmaninov's Orchestral works (May 2024)

RRachmaninov’s final work - and the only one composed fully in the United States - was the Symphonic Dances. It embraces jazz elements and ecstatic expressiveness and is both a valediction and a summation of his creativity. The Isle of the Dead is a lamentation utilizing a variant of the Dies irae - it is a stirring, transformative work that begins and ends in stillness. The early Caprice ohémien and Scherzo in D minor complete this programme of Leonard Slatkin’s admired achmaninov recordings on VOX, heard here newly remastered from the original tapes.
The Elite Recordings for VOX by legendary producers Marc Aubort and Joanna Nickrenz are considered by audiophiles to be amongst the finest
sounding examples of orchestral recordings.
