ON THE PROGRAM

All-Night VigilSergei Rachmaninoff (1873-1943)

We were on the eve of presenting Rachmaninoff’s sublime All-Night Vigil in March 2020 when the world abruptly shut down. We return to unfinished business as we offer this masterpiece within the warm acoustics of the Edythe Bates Old Recital Hall and Grand Organ at Rice University’s Shepherd School of Music. It was the ideal location for our 2002 performances, and 20 years later, we invite you back to experience what many feel is Rachmaninoff’s greatest work.
