Composed twenty-six years apart, this concerto underwent some of the most extensive revisions among all of his revised works. By examining the composer’s different choices in the two versions of the concerto, this study aims to shed light on the evolution of Rachmaninoff’s musical style as well as provide a deeper understanding of the final version of the work.application/pdfen-USnoneOp. 1Piano Concerto No. 1RachmaninoffPerforming artsMusicThesis
