A new album of chamber works by Sergei Rachmaninov.

This outstanding recording was made at two venues in Poland: the Łódź Academy of Music, and the Czestochowa Philharmony. The principal performer is pianist Barbara Karaśkiewicz who has made several highly praised recordings for Divine Art. She performs two piano duos with her musical partner Michał Rot. The chamber works are played by the Huberman Piano Trio whose Divine Art recording of 20th Century Chamber music was also acclaimed by critics.

Both the performances and the perfectly engineered recording offer a sumptuous program of Rachmaninov that will delight listeners.

The Huberman Trio was formed at the initiative of Barbara Karaśkiewicz, named in honour of the great Polish artist Bronislav Huberman, famed for his performances and transcriptions of works by Chopin and others.
