Sergei Rakhmaninov. Piano concerto No 3. Denis Matsuev

According to Maestro Riccardo Chailly, a characteristic feature of Rachmaninov's style is "harmonious" thinking. It's enough to hear just three chords, and you immediately recognize his creative genius, he noted.

Reviews:

"The theme of the 2019 Lucerne Summer Festival is "Power". This word has many meanings, and they all depend on the context. It has been scientifically proven that music improves memory, concentration and physical activity. This is her power! It can lift the mood and, by stimulating the regeneration of brain cells, increase motivation and concentration. The proof of this is the opening concert of the Lucerne Festival". (Bachtrack)
