Sergei Rachmaninoff

Sergei Rachmaninoff (1873–1943) was a Russian composer, pianist and conductor, widely regarded as one of the greatest pianists of the 20th century. Renowned for his deeply expressive melodies, rich harmonies and extraordinary piano writing, his music remains a favourite with performers and audiences alike.

His best-known works include the Piano Concertos, Prelude in C-sharp Minor, Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini, and Piano Sonata No. 2. Following the Russian Revolution, Rachmaninoff emigrated from Russia and spent much of his later life performing internationally, while continuing to compose some of his most celebrated works.

Today, Rachmaninoff's music is admired for its emotional depth, technical brilliance and timeless beauty.
