Three works for two pianos: Rachmaninoff's late Symphonic Dances from 1940, York Bowen's Theme & Variations from 1951, and Rachmaninoff's friend and compatriot Medtner's Two Pieces. York Bowen had many Rachmaninoff works in his extensive concert repertoire, and he became known without much justification as 'The English Rachmaninoff'. However strange that may sound, he like the two Russians on this recording represent (with Prokofiev) the last of the great pianist composers of the 20th century.
