Rachmaninoff & Time for Three

Scarred by cold criticism after the premiere of his First Symphony, Rachmaninoff believed he’d never write another. But after a 10-year battle with creative self-doubt, his next symphony proved a triumphant success — a testament to the composer’s resilience and his ability to pierce the heart with music of profound beauty. With its aching lyricism and fevered sensuality, Rachmaninoff’s Symphony No. 2 embraces love and loss, passion and despair, while offering some of the most ravishing melodies ever written.

But first, be astonished by the genre-busting musicians of Time for Three as they merge classical music, bluegrass and Bulgarian folk song in Kevin Puts’ Contact. Winner of the 2023 GRAMMY® Award for Best Contemporary Classical Composition, Contact explores our deep-seated yearning for human connection.
