Mikhail Pletnev and the newly formed Rachmaninoff International Orchestra (RIO) performed under the baton of Kent Nagano all four Rachmaninoff piano concertos and the Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini in October 2023. 2023 marked the 150th anniversary of the birth of twentieth-century composer Sergei Rachmaninoff, whose work is beloved for its breathtaking drama, absolute passion and the extraordinary technical sophistication. In the piano repertoire there might be no more challenging task than performing Rachmaninoff’s complete piano concertos – nor an artist more up to this task than the great Mikhail Pletnev. Rounding out this concert is legendary maestro Kent Nagano, who leads Pletnev and his ensemble with his usual deft hand and the unshakeable confidence required to unify these monumental works. This is the second release and the first public concert of the newly founded Rachmaninoff International Orchestra, which is named after the composer, pianist and conductor, Sergei Rachmaninoff. Like its namesake the Rachmaninoff International Orchestra is committed to achieving artistic excellence.

What is High-Resolution Audio?

High-resolution audio offers the highest-fidelity available, far surpassing the sound quality of traditional CDs. When you listen to music on a CD or tracks purchased via consumer services such as iTunes, you are hearing a low-resolution version of what was actually recorded and mastered in the studio. ProStudioMasters offers the original studio masters — exactly as the artist, producers and sound engineers mastered them — for download, directly to you.

What do I need for playback?

You may need additional software / hardware to take full advantage of the higher 24-bit high-res audio formats, but any music lover that has heard 16-bit vs 24-bit will tell you it's worth it!
