Harvest of Sorrow

Used in films like Brief Encounter and Shine; on TV in the South Bank Show and Panorama; on radio in Semprini Serenade; and including some of the most famous melodies of the 20th century, Rachmaninoff's romantic, passionate music is as popular today as it has ever been. This 100-minute documentary film, shot in Russia, Switzerland and America, is made with the full participation of the composer's grandson, Alexander Rachmaninoff.
