Classical Music Discoveries

In an album celebrating the 150th anniversary of Rachmaninoff’s birth, cellist John-Henry Crawford and pianist Victor Santiago Asuncion explore the voice-like qualities of the composer’s melodies. From the hauntingly beautiful “Vocalise” to the rousing energy of the “Sonata for Cello and Piano,” each piece is a testament to the genius of Rachmaninoff and the emotive power of the cello.
