Programme
This event is part of the Russian Moments series.
MEDTNER Two Pieces, Op. 58
RACHMANINOV Suite No. 2 for Two Pianos, Op. 17
Intermission
STRAVINSKY The Rite of Spring
The works for two pianos presented at the closing concert are dedicated to the triumphant artistic return amidst hardships of three Russian composers: Medtner’s Op. 58 reflects Rachmaninov’s insistence to compose daily despite the dangers in war; Rachmaninov’s Suite No. 2 for Two Pianos proves his talent again four years after his First Symphony; and the ‘near-riot’ premiere of Stravinsky’s The Rite of Spring only adds on its eminence!
