This is the best work he ever wrote. Concerto No. 2 comes close.

It is such an amazing piece! I am planning to upload the whole of the Symphonic Dances with Ashkenazy conducting soon.

This was his last composition!! It definitely does show how much passion is in his music. Thanks for uploading!

My high school marching band played this along with variations on a theme of paganini...Brilliant

Compare the melody and mood of this piece to "From the Middle Ages: The Troubador's Serenade" by Glazunov.

This is beautiful--but if you want to hear the entire piece played breathlessly, exquisitely flawless, get the version recorded by Eugene Ormandy and (I believe) the Philadelphia Philharmonic Orchestra.

his friend, the Belgian-American organist Charles Courboin!! What a wonderful addition to the concerto-repertoire generally AND especially for the otherwise very-weak repertoire for organ and orchestra that likely would have been given his very high standards!!!!]

Also, what an irony that the cancer that killed him stopped him in the midst of his last intended piano-concert tour and had him die in - of all places! - Beverley Hills, California!!!

0:39 Alto Saxophone solo. One of the most beautiful orchestral solo ever wrote.

To be able to create such beauty, it is beyond my understanding. Luckily all I need do is enjoy! God bless those who are gifted with musical talent, a rare and precious gift.

[Alagnapassion]

Thank you very much!!!!

This is simply beyond words...

[sulbirness]

This is missing the whole introduction!

Regardless, I just played the saxophone solo myself with an orchestra...

Best thing I have ever played, and I'm only 16!

Thankyou Mr. Rachmaninov :)
