Rachmaninoff: Piano Co... - Idil Biret - Audio CD (Arrives in 50 days)

Highlighting the artistry of Idil Biret, this archive edition assembles landmark recordings of her interpretations of Sergei Rachmaninov’s major works for piano and orchestra. At its core is the Piano Concerto No. 3, performed at her 1963 debut with the Boston Symphony Orchestra under Erich Leinsdorf, a concert marked by the sudden news of President John F. Kennedy’s assassination and remembered for its profound emotional intensity. Complementing this are later recordings from Istanbul (1983) and East Berlin (1985), including the Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini. Renowned for having performed and recorded the complete Rachmaninov concertos, Biret demonstrates remarkable command, tonal richness, and interpretative depth throughout these performances.
