My favorite part of my favorite symphony. It has been described as the unfurling of a "never-ending cascade of characteristically lush and opulent melodies, each one bound to speak directly to the heart."
It will be performed by the TSO in their upcoming concert season (April 1, 2022) .
It completely embodies Rachmaninov's famous description of what music is:
What is Music? How do you define it? Music is a calm moonlit night, the rustle of leaves in Summer. Music is the far off peal of bells at dusk! Music comes straight from the heart and talks only to of Poetry and her Mother is sorrow!
I wish I could be confident that I will attend but it is too far away. Even just the thought scares me.
