Immersed in the salutary tranquility of the Ivanovka estate, Rachmaninoff wrote his Third Piano Concerto during the summer of 1909. A masterpiece from a paradise not yet lost: not long after, war broke out in Europe, and in music. End of an era: even in the brilliance of Ravel's La valse and the grandeur of Hindemith's Mathis der Maler, you can hear that the world would never be the same again.
