Rachmaninoff’s Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini is a powerhouse of orchestral writing. Written in 1934, its sweeping lyricism and harmonic language more than likely influenced the language that film music composers would eventually adopt.
Consisting of 24 variations on a theme, this one, the 18th, is the most popular. The stirring melody and chord progressions flow effortlessly from one sublime moment to the next.
Transposed to the key of C, this piano arrangement seeks to make this masterful moment of music accessible to those more near the beginning of their musical journey at the piano.
