Rachmaninov’s Paganini Rhapsody is one of the most bewitching essays in musical variations. Watch the phenomenal pianist Behzod Abduraimov spin its 24 ingenious variations of breathless celerity, ravishing twilight and cinematic nostalgia. The Singapore Symphony Chorus and Youth Choir then join Hans Graf in a rendition of Daphnis et Chloé, the symphonie chorégraphique that Ravel called a vast musical fresco faithful to the Greece of his dreams.
