Valery Gergiev conducts a scintillating account of Sergey Rachmaninov's powerful Symphony No 3, often considered to be the composer's most overtly Russian symphony despite being written some two decades after he emigrated to America. Concluding the programme is Mily Balakirev's "Russia", an epic symphonic poem derived from themes collected during an expedition up the Volga river.
