Description:
These ten arrangements are a welcome addition to Rachmaninoff's small but important oeuvre for violoncello and piano. Klaus Simon explains that Rachmaninoff's songs are among the most beautiful in the entire repertoire and are particularly well suited for the cello. The flexible and beautiful sound of this instrument matches the melodies, and with its warmth as well as the possibilities for intense vibrato and tasteful portamento, the cello is ideal for an arrangement. The order of the pieces in this edition is a suggestion of the arranger and has proven to be very suitable for concerts. However, performers are completely free to determine the order.
