About Rachmaninoff Trio

OCC artist faculty Jee Sun Lee (violin), DoYeon Kim (cello) and Brian Gilmore (piano) celebrate Sergei Rachmaninoff’s 150th year with a performance of his two élégiaque trios. Both the works of a young composer, the 1st trio was written at the age of 18 in a single expressive movement. Less than two years later, Rachmaninoff composed his 2nd élégiaque trio. Dedicated “in memory of a great artist,” this work was an impassioned response to the death of Tchaikovsky and as such is a work of substantially greater power and breadth. Join us to hear this homage from one great Russian composer to another.

The Afternoon Recital Series is made possible, in part, through the support of the Ocean County College Foundation.
