Deutsche Grammophon is set to mark the 150th anniversary of Sergei Rachmaninoff’s birth with the release of three essential albums. “Rachmaninoff speaks to listeners as powerfully today as ever,” says Dr Clemens Trautmann, President Deutsche Grammophon. “His music first entered the DG catalogue during his lifetime and – as our anniversary tribute proves – it continues to inspire a remarkable generation of performers today. These wonderful recordings and breathtaking STAGE+ videos offer fresh insights into some of his greatest works.”

To coincide with Rachmaninoff’s birthday on 1 April, STAGE+ is releasing a curated selection of video-on-demand streams – music by the composer performed by exceptional artists such as Yuja Wang, Hélène Grimaud, Lang Lang and Daniil Trifonov.
A special edition of Daniil Trifonov’s award-winning Destination Rachmaninov project, recorded with Yannick Nézet-Séguin and The Philadelphia Orchestra, comes out today (31 March), a day ahead of the celebration. The reissue, comprising 3 CDs and a High-Fidelity Pure Audio Blu-ray disc, includes all four piano concertos and the Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini, along with Trifonov’s solo piano transcriptions of the Vocalise and Silver Sleigh Bells and Rachmaninoff’s own transcription of three movements from Bach’s Partita for solo violin, BWV 1006.
