Alexander Melnikov returns to Rachmaninoff with an exploration of the poetic world of the Variations on a Theme by Chopin. He traveled to Lake Lucerne to record this album on the master's own piano at Villa Senar, Rachmaninoff's last summer home. To accompany this eminently lyrical music, he joins forces with luminous soprano Julia Lezhneva and invites us to discover some of the Russian composer's most beautiful songs from this period of intense creative ferment.
