Rachmaninov - The Three Symphonies

Label BIS
Composers Rachmaninov, Sergey
Orchestras / Ensembles Royal Scottish National Orchestra
BIS Boss Robert von Bahr: There is no need to introduce Rachmaninov here. We have collected Owain Arwel Hughes's three discs of Rach's symphonies together and made a bundle out of them. Owain is conducting no less than the Royal Schottish National Orchestra in this for him so suitable repertoire and also the "Youth Symphony", Prince Rostislav and the ubiquitous Vocalise in the composer's own orchestral arrangement are thrown in, all at a 33% discount.
