Piano Concerto No. 2: Rachmaninoff

Prelude in Die Meistersinger von Nurnberg: Wagner

Music doesn't get any more emotionally charged than this! Wagner's overture is a passionate treatment of the theme of sacred and profane love while Rachmaninoff's second piano concerto (we call it "Rachy II") is filled with sweeping melodies, pianistic pyrotechnics and barnstorming orchestral effects. Maira Balacon of Mount Union College supplies the prestidigitation.
