Sergei Rachmaninoff (1873-1943) was a pianist and composer of international stature and one of the towering figures of early 20th century music. He left behind an ouvre consisting of some 170 works, many of which await discovery or are known only in forms far removed from the composer's intentions. Sergei Rachmaninoff : Critical Edition of the Complete Works (RCW), a project issued by Russian Music Publishing, is the first complete edition of Rachmaninoff 's music prepared in accordance with scholarly criteria while meeting the demands of performers. It catalogues, explores, and annotates every available musical, literary, and iconographic source on Rachmaninoff 's music. The RCW is published under the scholarly auspices of Dr. Valentin Antipov. The editorial standards of the RCW satisfy the most discerning criteria and are safeguarded by an Editorial Board of internationally acknowledged authorities in Rachmaninoff scholarship. Alexandre Rachmaninoff (1933-2012), the composer's grandson, has been retained as a special advisor. The RCW is furthermore realized in close cooperation with the Glinka State Central Museum of Musical Culture, which houses one of the most extensive collections of Rachmaninoff autographs worldwide. All sources are consulted for the first time and all compositions are presented in their authentic form with all existing versions from the composer.

Koro beiniki is perhaps the best-known Russian folk song in the world. Anyone who played Gameboy in days long past will surely still remember the Tetris melody, but perhaps they wouldn't know that this melody comes from Russia and tells a pretty nocturnal romance which allows some leeway for interpretation ... Well - this is Korobeiniki! For this arrangement, I was looking for the greatest possible contrast to the Tetris music: a kind of five-part fugue in five verses for five singers; a folk polyphony, so to speak, which - respectfully but with a twinkle in the eye - turns the contrapuntal art form into an arrangement, but at some point degenerates because one singer likes his folk song tune so much that he can't get enough of it and pushes himself more and more into the foreground ... (Ludwig Bohme).
