Rachmaninov, Sergey - Corellivariationer - Kern, Olga (piano)
Olga Kern, guldmedaljör vid "the 11th Van Cliburn International Piano Competition 2001", spelar här Rachmaninovs "Corellivariationer" samt pianotranskriptioner av Rachmaninov.
"Russian pianist Olga Kern is the granddaughter of a soprano who sang with Rachmaninov. She continues the family tradition in high style with these technically impressive, often dazzling accounts of 14 of his many piano transcriptions - from Bach to Schubert and Mendelssohn, Bizet and Kreisler, Tchaikovsky, Mussorgsky and Rimsky-Korsakov. We hear Rachmaninov's own cadenza to Liszt's Hungarian Rhapsody No 2, and a scintillating performance of his Variations on a Theme of Corelli , Op. 42. From a Bach gigue to Rimsky's Flight of the Bumblebee, Kern proves yet again that no-one can perform Russian music as well as Russians themselves."
