Sergei Rachmaninov - Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini

Sergei Rachmaninov - Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini

----------------------------------
A note from the author(s):

Dear, friends,
I thank you for your nice comments and I am glad that you are enjoying these beautiful musical master pieces.

I noticed that, from time to time, people will ask why is the image of Jean-Marc Barr on some of the clips. Well, it is a long story. Me (Mare79, a "name" from the image) and "Mayol" (a friend of mine) have made these several classical music videos during the time we were on one forum once. The picture of Jean-Marc Bar was the image of his avatar, and since all these videos were generally his idea, we decided to place a full photo of Jean-Marc in them. Jean-Marc had a role in one of his movies where he played a character named Mayol, so... It was just an idea at that time, but it still remained after all, since we didn't want to remove the video in order to upload a new one without this photo and make this clip an invalid entry in your favourites playlists.

So, the smaller image represents the photo of the composer. Enjoy the music, and have a nice day.

Best regards to all.

remove the photo of the fruit cup.... shame on you ,ow people will assoc. this piece with that image in their brain.

The clip is primarily musical. As far as I can see, nobody else had the "problem" about the "brain embedding image". Don't mind the image and simply enjoy the music like all these good people, that's what it's for.

[VolfMark]

Yes, the one in the smaller picture is Sergei.

Mogu li da pitam ko to svira? Ovo mi se izvodjenje vrlo dopada :) Hvala.

Naravno, no nadam se da ću biti od pomoći. Naime, ovo je numera sa CD-a koji imam i koji se zove "The Most Relaxing Classical Album In The World... Ever!"

@rogelion Just good??? this song is an amazing composition i dont have the correct words to describe the piece cause this is music that expres more than a million of words :D

[windstorm1000]

Now who is the handsome pianist? He plays with great poetry and heart.  Oh, excuse me that is Cecile Ousset--assume French.

Possibly the greatest compliment to this music, was the fact that John Barry - arguably the finest film score composer - based his extraordinarily passionate & romantic score for 'Somewhere in Time' on it, and even featured it in the film as the main character's favorite piece of music! (Not to mention the fact that we're all still blown-away by it here in 2001). Bravo Rachmaninov !

maravilloso

@ButterflyRedrum You HAVE to see Somewhere in Time to get it. Music rarely makes me cry, but trust me, if you see the movie, you WILL cry.

@maggiebmchugh  Yeah, I want it played at mine as well.
