Rachmaninoff - The Last of the Great Romantics - Biography

Sergei Rachmaninoff is one of the best loved composers of the 20th century – his piano concertos and other works are some of the most achingly passionate pieces of music ever written – marking the end of the romantic era in the arts with a final outpouring of intense emotion. Yet his most famous works were almost never written. After being mired in deep depression and suffering from complete writers’ block for three years following the disastrous premiere of his first symphony, a desperate Rachmaninov sought out treatment with a pioneering psychiatrist who restored his spirits and re-energised him to create some of the most popular pieces of music in the classical repertoire. This biographical documentary explores the glorious music and eventful life of Sergei Rachmaninov – examining his early years in Imperial Russia, his successes and failures and his long exile in America. And we find out why he was so grateful to his psychiatrist that he dedicated his most famous concerto to him. Finding Out More There are several very good biographies, but I found one of the older ones the most useful – Rachmaninoff – a Lifetime in Music by Sergei Bertensson and Jay Leyda.
