Rachmaninoff: Trio Elegiaque No.2 in D minor, Part 1

[Bret6464]

This is well performed - but imo lacks the intensity, emotion, passion and musicality that one hears from Kogan, Lazunov and Svetlanov! :-))

P.S. Happy 138th Birthday, Rachmaninoff :)

My heart just melted. <3

This is the best musical expression of sorrow and elegy that exists.

I bet Tchaikovsky smiles down every time this is played. I love this.

[OriginalBasaliskos]

This is one of the most depressing pieces of music I've ever heard. I absolutely love it. My favorite recording of this is done by Kogan, Lazunov, and Svetlanov. 

[shihiko11210]

Probably my most, absolute favorite Rachmaninov piece EVER. He is the MASTER of musical emotion. For a piece, 1st 2nd and 3rd movement to make me feel so...there are no words...it's just magnificent. He is the reason that I play violin and piano.

To think we could have recordings of Rachmaninoff and Horowitz playing his suites if only sony never denied Rachmaninoff these recordings and understood his music a little more. but, Rachmaninoff did make countless recordings just for 1 piece so sony did put a lot of money into his recordings. especially the ones that couldn't be used.

I see what you mean, KiraCohen, but my favorites are still end of "Vocalise" and end of the slow movement [2] Piano concerto, 2.

7:17 = so beautiful, my favorite part.

Même BEETHOVEN par ex. qui était 1 grand agité exprimait aussi de la JOIE, de l'équilibre , et des pulsions de VIE...et non MORBIDES (sauf à la fin de sa carrière, ok deaff)...AU SECOURS...!!! Ouvrez grand les fenêtres...Vite SchUmann, SchuB., BrAhMs...merci! pour vos autres vidéos, autres...DarkRaimondo ! N.B;= le classique doit-il être fatalement triste ?!?...NON. :-o)

Tengo una versión que dura 15:30, es prodigiosa. No he dejado de escucharla desde que mi novio, que es pianista, la dejó en mi escritorio. Creo que además de ser nostálgica, expresa el verdadero que asumieron los artistas románticos: arrebatadora y pasional. Denota la impotencia y a la vez el prodigioso alcance de los compositores de la Rusia revolucionaria.

[ann03071874]

Sublime!
