Over the course of almost 10 years, Yevgeny Sudbin has been recording Sergei Rachmaninov's works for piano and orchestra. The journey began in the U.S.A. in 2008 with the Fourth Piano Concerto in what Classic FM Magazine described as 'a glorious recording' with the North Carolina Symphony Orchestra under Grant Llewellyn. For the Paganini Variations and Piano Concerto No. 1, Sudbin continued to Asia and highly praised collaborations with the Singapore Symphony Orchestra and conductor Lan Shui. Reviewers remarked on the soloist's 'transcendental virtuosity and kaleidoscopic keyboard colour' (BBC Music Magazine) and enjoyed piano-playing with 'depth of tone, subtlety and richness of texture, and scintillating dynamism allied to acute lyrical sensibility' (Gramophone). The grand finale of the cycle combines the two most popular of Rachmaninov's concertos - No. 2 in C minor and No. 3 in D minor - but it also constitutes a home-coming of a kind, as it was recorded in London, Yevgeny Sudbin's base since 1997. For his partners in these monumental and almost iconic concertos, Sudbin has chosen the BBC Symphony Orchestra and it's chief conductor Sakari Oramo
