This Value Pack includes Rachmaninoff's Fantaisie-tableaux (Suite No. 1), Op. 5 and Suite No. 2, Op. 17.Fantaisie-tableaux (Suite No. 1), the large four-movement work, was written in 1893 and premiered by Rachmaninoff and Pavel Pabst in Moscow. It is dedicated to Peter Ilyich Tchaikovsky. A few lines of poetry by Romantic poets preface each movement. The theme of love in the first two movements is brought to life by the two pianos with colorful, passionate writing. The final two movements feature the sound of bells---the third movement inspired by cathedrals bells that Rachmaninoff heard as a youngster, and the fourth movement capturing the jubilant sound of Easter carillon.Suite No. 2, Op. 17 was written between 1900 and 1901, and was premiered in 1901 by Rachmaninoff and Alexander Siloti. This virtuosic suite is orchestral in nature and contains four movements. The first movement serves as a march-like introduction, and the second and fourth movements are dances---a waltz and tarantella. Between the two dances is a slow third movement. Two copies required for performance.

It equally comprises the world of the chorales and passions, the Baroque dance movements and concertos.The edition is based on Volume 14 of the complete edition of the Bach-Gesellschaft (Breitkopf and Härtel, Leipzig, 1864) as well as on Hermann Keller's new Urtext edition (Edition Peters, Leipzig, 1963). In shaping the text of the publication we also studied the major Urtext editions in general use today. The text variants of an Urtext validity which by and large equal the main text, are given in ossia. The editor's addenda are put in square brackets, or in the case ofligatures, are marked with broken lines. (István Lantos).
