Rachmaninoff was one of history's most portentous pianists, and in Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini, unofficially considered his fifth piano concerto, he aimed to pay tribute to another great virtuoso – in this case, of the violin. He did just that by taking the unforgettable theme of Paganini's Caprice No. 24 and subjecting it to 24 piano variations, each more dazzling and difficult than the previous. The score requires an extraordinarily gifted pianist and Trevino has invited the great Russian virtuoso Nikolai Lugansky to take on the challenge, as he is deeply familiar with Rachmaninoff's music.
