Rachmaninoff: The Piano Concertos & Paganini Rhapsody - Dudamel & LA Phil (3 LP)
Recorded live at Walt Disney Concert Hall in February 2023, this ambitious project presents Rachmaninoff’s lush and virtuosic four piano concertos and the enthralling Rhapsody
on a Theme of Paganini performed by the Los Angeles Philharmonic and the renowned Yuja Wang conducted by Music & Artistic Director Gustavo Dudamel.
The recording of these sold-out and critically acclaimed performances include five large-scale works written by Rachmaninoff for piano and orchestra that have been part of Yuja Wang's repertoire since the beginning of her career. She has collaborated with Gustavo Dudamel and the Los Angeles Philharmonic Orchestra on several occasions, and these performances convey a strong sense of mutual respect and understanding. As Dudamel notes, "We connect as if we were playing chamber music."
