Rachmaninov Trio élégiaque in D minor Op.9 - Kogan, Luzanov, Svetlanov (1/6)

[lvcharvet]

This is the one.

This must be pure heroin, the first puff got me hooked for ever.

Seriously, this interpretation is outstanding.

Many thanks to you, Nikolaï Medtner (the second!) for posting this "video" - the paintings are gorgeous too

[nikolaimedtner]

@raph400 You're welcome.

How can you not love these recordings by Russian/Soviet all-stars like the present one...

[Bret6464]

@minasgekos Nothing Soviet about this - this is extraordinary music. And Rachmaninoff hated everything "soviet".

Best performance ever of the D minor trio, immense musicality and passion as a trio by three true masters, BRAVI! :-)

[minasgekos]

@Bret6464 They were born in USSR, that's what i meant, chill out...

[Bret6464]

@minasgekos Svetlanov, Luzanov and Kogan are Russian - All three are extraordinary in this, but Svetlanov drives the performance, a magical artist totally attuned to the music. Listen to all the other versions by others on YT and you will see they pale in comparison.

im not usually listening to classic music but this is hypnotic....

[Gargantupimp]

@nikolaimedtner Favorited as soon as I saw Kogans name with Rachmaninoff trio. Greatest upload ever

@yougoddamnprick Well, maybe i was when i wrote this, a year ago. Just don't look too closely now,(altho i've still got lots of hair, and the rest, to stand on end!).

[erblichhans]

Great piece of music! And even if you don't like the music itself (like I did until a couple of weeks ago :P) it's worth listening it just because of the great performance!

I especially like the beginning, and the part starting at 5:04.

man i love this trio....

no other words to describe it...its just simply too good

[MicrobeObliteratorMo]

epic...

[adambomb30]

A really great performance of this work and I'm thankful to have it in my collection along with just about every recording that Svetlanov made. Svetlanov was a really great artist who never got the recognition he deserved.

[tamegomaith93]

This is a goodt comment. Rate it thumbs up.

[nikolaimedtner]

Done! Looks like somebody was messing around with the ratings

[tamegomaith93]

;) Good video, by the way. And thank you :) Playing this trio sometime soon with my mother and a cellist :) Can't wait!

[teoviolin]

The interpretation of the Shostakovitch trio is much better that this one.

[snaaptaker]

Absolutely marvelous!

And it's good to be reminded about what a wonderful pianist Svetlanov was, in addition to being such a great conductor.

[NOSEhow2LIV]

Aha! At last the only interpretation of this problematic work that made my hair stand on end! Svetlanov seems to dominate with his truly "epic" orchestral thinking, drawing his partners thru the impenetrable forests inexorably to shattering climaxes which amaze the players themselves. What incredible musicianship!

[lethavian]

que obra de arte, amigo estas muy bien, sigue asi

[atralfalgar]

So beautiful !

[kostiq]

Best interpretation!!! Very courageous performance!!!
