Additional info/contents	Steven Ponsford's "Rachmaninov Rhapsody" for advanced brass band is based on motifs from Rachmaninov's Piano Concerto No. 2. Ponsford adapts the characteristic themes and moods of the original in eight movements, ranging from march-like rhythms and lyrical passages to virtuoso final sections. He deliberately utilizes the brass band's tonal possibilities to reinterpret the emotional depth and musical diversity of the concerto. The work combines Rachmaninov's romantic expressiveness with a modern wind orchestra, thus offering a demanding and varied challenge for wind bands.
