This is the premier recording of Sergei Rachmaninov's complete songs originally released by Decca throughout the 1970's. Pianist Vladimir Ashkenazy and Soprano Elisabeth Soderstrom are perfect together here, delivering highly poetic, radiant, complimentary performances throughout that fully do justice to these sadly much neglected gems. Decca's sound is remarkably good with exceptional detail and presence. A must for fans of the composer regardless of their interest in vocal music.
