If Rachmaninov had this concerto 'playing' in his, this is how it would sound.

As a musician, I really shouldn't say this, but this recording is just "perfect". Period.

Zimerman's timing simply sparkles.

Even at 7:33 - a segment of this particular piece where I hear many other performers miscommunicate with the conductor, or feels forced - the rhythm is flawlessly in sync and effortless.

Glad this is back on you tube ! I feel this recording by Mr Krystian Zimerman is the most expertly done opening of any of all the numerous ( many ) recordings I've listened to of various Pianoforte Virtuosi - the dynamic gradation in / of the opening measures ( bars ) is so skilfully and powerfully done ! Well done ... and of course , the remainder of the performance is exquisitely done from both Musical & technical viewpoints . A real gem of a Concerto performance / recording . Thank you .
