  • I've heard people tell me that writing as an art, is just as complex as playing an istrument. I used to find that hard to believe. Until I heard this, when I simply stopped believing it. It is so good to know that classical music has not died, and Rachmaninoff is quite possibly my favorite composer. Thank you for this.

  • @LaodMoutH I did not realize that my playing would inspire someone this deeply. I am grateful that you enjoyed my interpretation of this great piece - one of my favourites of Rachmaninoff.

  • Incredible. Very sensitive, and harsh.

    Completely suited the piece and your playing complimented the mood in everyway. I would love to learn this song on piano, altthough, i am just a drum player.

    Good job.

  • @hobeybennett thanks, and much appreciated! Also, its never too late to learn piano! Just takes years of practice but totally worth it.

  • thanks for all the comments guys!

  • thanks for a great job. Do you know where I might get this sheet music online?

  • LUVED IT :) RAWRRR

  • why so fast, and such varying tempo? left hand is too broken, it must be a creeping, rubber-like legato. Wrong rhythm in some parts. Remember...crescendo does not mean acceleration. Play it slower. Your have no time to show true emotion. The right hand is also broken. The right hand is the melody, dont break it. Overall, unnecessary speeding up of tempo, too fast, first part is pp and mf at the loudest. save the emotion for the 3d part! You failed at doing that.

  • Absolutely B-E-A-UTIFUL!

  • very very well done! but i have one suggestion, and its the polyrhythms messing up the triplets in ur right hand a little bit, and to make every note in the triplets more equal would make that section sound very impressive indeed :)

  • :) good

  • master

  • Very well done! It is such a moving peice to play, as well as listen to!

  • L O V E I T !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
