Mi corazón revive los momentos de amor más grandes de mi vida a través de este tema. Nadie imagina como siente mi corazón por esta melodía. Vi la película que lleva su mismo nombre y la historia contada en ella me lleva a recordar momentos maravillosos sobre un amor imposible que sólo el tiempo y Dios podrán hacer posible en algún lugar del tiempo.

Finally, after so many years, I felt I am alive again when I was listening to this piece, and I thought I forgot how to cry already.

Rachmaninov = GOD

[RobertJohnM]

Sounds similar to Claudia's theme by Clint Eastwood.

[zerokoolize]

Precioso, emocina hasta las lagrimas. Gracias.

[Jacobo21091980]

@zerokoolize Yo lloré

[g7727]

Liked it.

[adel12037]

The melody is a a major inversion of the theme composed by Paganini. The idea itself is a true genius, just to play it upside down. Not at all questioning the pure talent of Sergei Vasilievich Rachmaninov, he inspired a lot of people and his music is remarkable and one of a kind. The melody of his 3rd concert is so simple yet noone else could compose it like that.

[Vape4life]

...incredible.

[YadQurbany]

This.... is amazing.

God wrote through Rachmaninoff's pen.... He really did. This melody dropped down from heaven.

[fernandolima345]

Eu acho esta musica linda !! Fazia muito tempo que estava a procura dela ,joje encontrei !! Sergei estava muito inspirado quando a compôs!!

[DarkLatias810]

[princelittlegoose]

@devdas14224 ~ I live in Beverly Hills CaIi and Rachmaninov visited my house numerous times of course it wasnt owned by my father who is a full-time producer, but the one thing that passed ownerships between the home was the grand piano that was stored in a "secret" attic. We assume it's the one he played. Anyways, I believe him. I am only 15. You cam believe everything I just said or be a dumb ass and regard it as lies...whatever floats yo boat.

[bondoman2k]

@devdas14224 Just for the record, if spactick WAS lying about his age, it is VERY possible that Rachmaninov played for them. He was born April 1, 1873 in Russia, and passed on March 28th, 1943 in Beverly Hills, Cali. Spactick doesn't say how old he was, just says "as a child". So, before you call him a 'liar', you may want to research a little. BTW..one of the BEST songs I have ever heard, lost my wife of 10 yrs. last year, so this kind of music hits me hard lately.

[dortmin]

Los ultimos 15 segundos los senti en lo mas profundo de mi corazon.

[cowgirlupbc]

This piece never fails to inspire within me such a feeling...indescribable.

[regfilms]

I love this song, the not good thing is that only last 3 minutes, I could spend all my day listening this beautiful song for several times

[spactick]

when I was a child Mr. Rachmaninov came over to our house and played this piece for us on our piano. we were absolutely overwhelmed by the beauty of this piece even tho we were just kids.

[ylem19867]

@spactick omg are you serious? what I wouldnt give for that !

[devdas14224]

@spactick hahaha what a liar you're 64...rachmaninoff was dead before you were born.

[spactick]

@devdas14224 liar?  how do you know(my profile) I'm not lying about my age? us seniors have to have a little fun anyway we can. Mr. Rachmaninov did come to our home and play piano. I've got the pictures to prove it if you like? want to see the pics? or maybe you think I did them on photo-shop?

[ChrisGuy1980]

@spactick I for one would love to see them! :-) And sooo jealous that he used to play in front of you!!!!

[j0p]

i would learn piano just for this song

[soccerchick24913]

[BigDuckKetterer]

TenStarsplus!!! OMG!!! He is almost like a reincarnation of the great Sergei Rachmaninoff who passed away 3 months before I was born!! I was born in July 1943!! Thank you so much for posting this beautiful song, one of my all time favorites!!! Stephen

[RobertPaulJackson]

1:37 is the closest thing to perfection I've ever heard.

[briandonohue100]

That is one sublime performance. Must have been a cool concert, wonder what the chorus sang.

[kamosesat]

BRAVO!

[SuzelleDeGrace]

Je suis pianiste, quelque part, à peu près 40 ans de réflexions, même s'il n'y a pas de carrière. Ce pianiste est quelqu'un d'extraordinaire pour moi. Humilité et savoir conjugués. Merci pour la beauté!

[AngelAdanero]

Merci a vous pour apprécier la beauté
