Gluck-Sgambati: Melodie (Sergey Rachmaninov, piano)

*from Orfeo ed Euridice A Window in Time Rachmaninov performs classic piano works in a spectacular new recording made on Bosendorfer 290SE Reproducing Piano. This remarkable listening experience brings Rachmaninov’s phenomenal pianistic talent to life in today’s world. By using unprecedented new techniques of transfer and reproduction, the mechanical aspects of music roll performances have been eliminated. More astonishingly, these advances reveal the subtleties and fine details of Rachmaninov’s playing with startling clarity, showing us why he was regarded as perhaps the greatest pianist of his time. realized by Wayne Stahnke
