Roman Rabinovich and Orion Weiss are back together for an evening of Rachmaninoff's Suites for Two Pianos. If you have never heard these pieces live, it is something else: two grand pianos in full conversation, filling the room with a sound one piano alone simply cannot make.
Sergei Rachmaninoff wrote two masterpieces for two pianos: Suite No. 1, Op. 5 ("Fantaisie-Tableaux") composed in 1893, and Suite No. 2, Op. 17 composed in 1901. Together, they track his meteoric early rise, a subsequent deep psychological collapse, and his triumphant creative rebirth.
These are works of real passion and power, and they demand two musicians who think and breathe as one. Roman and Orion have that, and we cannot wait to share it with you. ----- Rachmaninoff: Suite No. 2 for Two Pianos, Op. 17 I.
