Rachmaninov's Second Piano Concerto is so embedded in our culture, it's surprising the composer experienced such a crisis of confidence when composing it. Lush, teeming with memorable tunes and orchestral drama, the work's heart - the melting second movement- is the emotional soundtrack running through David Lean's 1945 film Brief Encounter. More recently it features in Clint Eastwood's film Hereafter. Nikolai Demidenko's pianism of fiery brilliance and keening tenderness makes him an ideal soloist. Dvo?ák's Eighth Symphony, in which the composer revels in his Slavonic heritage, is preferred by many to the New World Symphony.
