This volume from the Boosey Masterworks Series contains a mix of orchestral and vocal works. The Five Etudes Tableaux were orchestrated by the Italian composer Ottorino Respighi from a selection of the composer's Opp. 33 and 39. Symphonic Dances (Op. 45) was the last composition Rachmaninoff ever wrote while Vocalise is the last in Op. 34 a collection of 14 Romances.Sergei Rachmaninoff (1873-1943) was a Russian composer and pianist who was able to push the boundaries of virtuosic Piano composition through his incredible skills as a performer. Through hisrich textures and expressiveness he is often seen as the last great member if not the pinnacle of the European Romantic movement.

One of the greatest figures of late Russian Romanticism Rachmaninoff exhibited his mature style in this work written during 1906 7 and first performed at the Leeds Festival in 1910 where it was conducted by the composer himself.Symphony No. 2 In E Minor Op. 27 In Full Score is admired for its fully developed melodic style and and the lavish and imaginative use of the orchestra.
