BBC Music March 2023

You'll probably recognise the cover star of our April issue. Yes, to mark what would be the composer Sergey Rachmaninov's 150th birthday this month, a handpicked selection of performers including Steven Isserlis, Howard Shelley and Vasily Petrenko discuss the Romantic Russian's genius with our writer Andrew Green.

Staying with Rachmaninov, our editor Charlotte Smith meets the Clarion Choir, who are marking the composer's centenary-and-a-half by recording all his major choral works - including The Bells and the All-Night Vigil, the two works of which the great man was proudest of all.
