Recorded live at the Hong Kong Cultural Centre in March 2000, acclaimed Canadian pianist Jon Kimura Parker gives a sparkling performance of Rachmaninov's Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini, Op.43 with the Hong Kong Philharmonic Orchestra and conductor David Atherton. Written in 1934, Rachmaninov's Rhapsody is testament his ability to combine wit, excitement, suspense and fast-paced imagination as the music constantly reinvents itself throughout the work's 24 variations, and this vital performance is brimming with colour and energy.
