OVER DEZE AFLEVERING
This episode explores music shaped by struggle and sweeping emotional range. Rachmaninoff’s Piano Concerto No. 2 stands as a triumph born from personal crisis, unfolding in waves of brooding intensity and soaring lyricism that define the height of the Romantic concerto tradition. From there, Vaughan Williams expands the canvas with his Sea Symphony, a vast, multifaceted work that blends symphony, oratorio and opera. It sets Walt Whitman’s poetry to music that surges like the ocean itself — at once contemplative and monumental.
