interesting interpretation!!

I don't think it s a fantastic version... This study is very lyrical, passionate, lively, it needs a huge impulse to reach the second part...Here everything is freezed, anesthetized. The result is boring.

seems like a practice tempo to me. He's very gifted and I usually love his playing, but no this. I find this bizarre, though I am curious what his thinking was. I can't imagine Rachmaninoff intended this tempo, can you?

Hey, the tempo marking here is "Appassionato" and "molto marcato" When you start off disregarding that things go to pot pretty quickly.

check out Nicolai Lugansky. He has some Rach on youtube and also an incredibly good CD with the complete Etudes- Tableau.

This is not my favorite inter. but i can def. respect this one and it is very beautiful.

The hugely underrated Nelson Freire gives the most convincing performance for me, full of colour, shape & musical warmth as well as the necessary bravura. Itin is in rather too reflective a mood here & the piece only just holds together thanks to his musicianship.
Not bad. I love this peice, I really appreciate the slower tempo, in allowing his balance to show, but phrases are tougher to say convincingly, and the slow tempo prevented some of the longer phrases.

The tempo is slow, almost ponderous and lethargic, but he brings out counter-melodies, other voices, since he provides the space.
