This is a community [unpaid] orchestra, not a professional orchestra, so forgive the mistakes as very few of us perform for a living.. We were very happy to have George play with us, and the members of our community in the audience loved his performance.

Nice stuff. Now this is musical talent. The next time I hear someone say pop singers are "talented", I may just slap that person....lol :)

What was the last encore piece that he played? It sounds very familiar!

Yea, if you are a serious musician/serious student, your teacher will always make you memorize music that you play. It is a skill that is built at a very young age, and a contributor to why musicians are usually good at retaining/memorizing information at school. I have never seen any performer (with exception of accompanists) that use music when they perform. They almost always have the music memorized. (Rote memorization is a really bad thing however...)

Most recordings of this concerto (my alltime favorite) are at a slower tempo to showcase the beauty of the harmony and many many wonderful notes. George played it pretty much spot-on the tempo I've heard Rachmaninoff record it at. Kudos to George and the orchestra.
