Version for soprano and orchestra

Description
Rachmaninow added a short, final piece without lyrics to his op. 34 collection of songs three years after the other 13 pieces were written in 1912: the Vocalise, which quickly became a worldwide success. Since its premiere in 1916, countless arrangements of this melancholic and expressive piece have been disseminated; however, only two were created by Rachmaninow himself, one for voice and orchestra and one for orchestra alone.
With this edition, we present the version for voice and orchestra in Urtext for the first time, drawing on autograph sources held by the Glinka Museum in Moscow and the 1916 Russian first edition. Minor variations, compared to the piano version, are listed in the Critical Report.
