Why it is worth going
Over six days Nikolai Lugansky plays all four of Rachmaninoff's piano concertos and the Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini with the Santa Cecilia orchestra and Stanislav Kochanovsky; this is the closing night.1 The Third Concerto comes first, then the Second Symphony.2 The whole cycle is being recorded live by Harmonia Mundi.1 The first half runs about 45 minutes, the second about 60, with a 20-minute interval.2
