Background: This is an enlightening coupling of two highly contrasting works, written only six or so years apart. Rachmaninov's evocative Six Choruses for women's voices, with their expressive piano accompaniment, is surprisingly rare in the recorded catalogue.

The extraordinarily progressive first symphony by the great visionary composer, Alexander Scriabin, is a grandiose and experimental work in six movements, each one increasing in emotional intensity, suggesting a spiritual journey.
