Sergei Rachmaninoff

 Russian composer, virtuoso pianist, and conductor Sergei Vasilyevich Rachmaninoff was born on this day in 1873.

Famous for possessing a clean and virtuosic technique, he is widely considered as one of the finest pianists of his day. As a composer, he is regarded as one of the last great representatives of Romanticism in Russian classical music. Through his compositions, Rachmanioff cultivated a personal idiom notable for its melodicism, expressiveness and rich orchestral colours, with a particular focus on piano music. Learn more about this musical legend with this insightful quote: “Music is enough for a whole lifetime, but a lifetime is not enough for music.”
