Sergei Rachmaninoff was a renowned composer, pianist, and
conductor. Because he was a member of the Russian aristocracy, he
fled the country after the tsar's abdication, and eventually
relocated in the United States. Many of his compositions are for
piano, yet he also composed orchestral and symphony works, three
operas, choral and liturgical works, some chamber works, and
numerous songs. This guide catalogues his numerous works and
performances, provides a detailed bibliography, and includes a
discography of recordings released within the last
half-century.
Cross-referenced throughout, this volume should appeal to music
and Rachmaninoff scholars who are looking for a comprehensive guide
to further research.
