Symphony No. 2 In E Minor, Op. 27, in Full Score Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The full score of Rachmaninoff's most popular symphony is a wonderful bargain at Dover's price.(The competing version by Boosey & Hawkes is more than twice as expensive, and hard to find outside of music stores, unlike the popular Dover series.)A problem: a production error resulted in the reprinting of the music on page 73 on page 78; the solution, photocopy page 110 (whose 8 bars are identical to the missing page) and paste it over page 78.Dover has been alerted by me about this error, but apparently errant copies are still in circulation.Also, be alerted that many recordings of this symphony make significant cuts in the music, especially in the outer movements, so be alert if you are using this to follow a recording!

Product Description:
One of the greatest figures of late Russian Romanticism, Rachmaninoff exhibited his mature style in this work, written during 1906-7 and first performed at the Leeds Festival in 1910, where it was conducted by the composer himself. Admired for its fully developed melodic style and and the lavish and imaginative use of the orchestra (particularly in the scherzo). Reproduced from an authoritative source.
