Pre-shipment lead time: 3-5 daysFormat : Sheet music Par RACHMANINOV SERGEI / GERSTEIN KIRILL (Arr.). In the Silence of the Secret Night is a piano arrangement of Sergei Rachmaninoff s setting of Afanasy Fet, taken from the composer s song cycle Six Romances, Op. 4 (1890-93). The poem describes a fitful lover s nocturnal yearning. This three-minute piece draws on pianist Kirill Gerstein s idiomatic grasp of the composer s music, transcribing the song in a way that recalls Rachmaninoff s writing from the early 1900s. It makes for an ideal vignette in a recital programme or elegant encore, suitable for advanced players. 'In the transcription of Rachmaninov s song [Gerstein s] musicianship was at once liberated and liberating.' The Observer (Fiona Maddocks) / Date parution : 2023-06-01/ Répertoire / Piano
