Rachmaninoff dedicated it to the famous Russian soprano Antonina Nezhdanova, trusting that her voice could express everything without words. Although it belongs to a song cycle, “Vocalise” quickly became more famous than the other 13 songs and is often performed on its own in concerts. Rachmaninoff originally wrote it in C-sharp minor, but it is often transposed so that different singers and instruments can perform it comfortably. He also made his own arrangements for voice and orchestra and for orchestra alone, and since then countless other arrangements have appeared. #panflute #panpipe #panflöte #flute #finnishmusic #panhuilu #youngartist #vocalise #rachmaninoff #rachmaninov #tvconcert
