Rachmaninoff's music endures at 150.

Pianist Kirill Gerstein discusses Sergei Rachmaninoff's legacy and lasting popularity, stating that his music has a real core of aesthetic value. Gerstein's new album, which includes Rachmaninoff solo works and the Second Piano Concerto, makes a strong case for the composer's significance. Despite criticisms of being an outlier in classical music's embrace of modernism, Rachmaninoff's music remains immensely popular for its deeply felt emotions and sensational virtuosity.
