Symphony no. 3 in A minor, op. 44 / Sergei Rachmaninov (43:26) -- Russia : (second overture on three Russian themes) / Mily Balakirev (13:04) |
| Summary |
Valery Gergiev conducts the composer's powerfully emotional Symphony No Three, framed with a work by one of the Mighty Five; Mily Balakirev's Russia. Often considered to be his most overtly Russian symphony, Rachmaninov makes subtle use throughout the work of a motto theme which can be heard in the finale as a variant of the Dies Irae plainchant; a melodic tag used in Rachmaninov's music as a dark reminder of mortality |
