  • @weikko79 I've seen the score, Medtner writes this version in as an alternate. Your ears are not deceiving you.

    Love the restraint in Medtner's playing. Same golden sound and phrasing as Rachmaninoff, but much more Classical and balanced. It's no wonder that Rachmaninoff was bowled over by him.

  • @floriannoack Scherbakov did record Medtner's Second Concerto, it's on a disc with the Piano Quintet.

  • Where can I buy this recording?

  • my favourite piano concerto right now, simply haunting! and to be able to hear medtner play.. invaluable. thanks so much!

  • This is one of my favourite movements of all Medtner's.... he incorporates so many brilliant musical ideas.

  • this is such an amazing concerto. The secondary theme in this movement is soooooooooooo beautiful, one of my favourite melodies, I can't stop singing it!

  • Amazing!!! thanks for posting!

  • One of my favorite piano concertos played by the composer. The recording is very clear. Thank you for posting.

  • Medtner was an extraordinary pianist and his rendition of his third piano concerto is also better than Tozer's. By the way, the third concerto (not yet on Youtube) is darker and more Rachmaninov like. It is definitely my favorite !

  • How about Tatiana Nikolaeva? Have you heard it? If you did, could you please give me a little review? Thanks.
