RACHMANINOV, S.: All-night Vigil album coverAn introduction to a new recording of Rachmaninoff’s Vespers, one of his finest choral pieces.

Rachmaninoff composed this music in 1915, on the eve of the Russian Revolution, and political events that would lead to a decades-long ban on playing any kind of religious music in concert. This music was finally heard again in churches in the 1960’s and in concert halls in the 1970’s.
