Rachmaninoff’s Second Symphony, filled with dark-chocolate harmonies, has been seducing newcomers to classical music for a century. No wonder its melodies have also cropped up in movies and pop songs. In Nico Muhly’s new piano concerto, Sounding, melodies inspired by hymn tunes are also abundant. Here is edge-of-your-seat beauty, topped off by the timelessness of Debussy’s musical portrait of moonlight.
