Russian Rhapsody (Rachmaninoff)
''Russian Rhapsody'' is a piece for two pianos in E minor composed by Sergei Rachmaninoff in 1891, when he was 18. It is more accurately described as a set of variations on a theme, rather than a true rhapsody. It was premiered on October 29, 1891, and its performance lasts approximately nine minutes.
==Background==
While still a student at Moscow Conservatory, Rachmaninoff wrote to Natalia Skalon on mentioning that he had begun work on a piece for two pianos that he wanted to play with Alexander "Sasha" Siloti.〔 〕 Although, he dated the manuscript January 12–15, 1891 (HREF="http://www.kotoba.ne.jp/word/11/Old Style and New Style dates" TITLE="Old Style and New Style dates">O.S. ), implying that he had the composition in his head at the time of the letter, and only recorded the days he notated it on paper. Despite his stated intentions, he began rehearsing with Leonid Maximov, who had been a fellow student of Nikolai Zverev and pupil of Siloti, to play at a student concert at the Conservatory on March 8, 1891. However, Zverev, still upset over Rachmaninoff's request for a separate composing room, did not allow them to play together, so at the concert Rachmaninoff ended up conducting his choral work ''Deus Meus'' (1890) instead.〔 The Rhapsody received its premiere after he graduated, on October 29, 1891, in a performance by Rachmaninoff and Josef Lhévinne at the Conservatory.〔
