  • @vignetique Yes, all poured into Rachmaninoff's eulogy (Elegie) in memory of his friend who had passed away.

  • @lolonthecake Yes :-)) There was one YT video of this on another channel that had over 100M views (from the CD Rachmaninov Plays Rachmaninov, The Ampico Piano Recordings) that was pulled by YT a couple of years ago - copyright. Since, there have been a half-dozen new ones posted.

    This is the ONE piano performance that is unforgettable.

  • so it would seem there are a couple of different versions of this using the piano roll as a basis

  • this is the version from the "A Window in Time" disc: "The recordings on this disc are of Rachmaninov's reproducing piano rolls as electronically translated for the Bösendorfer 290SE by Wayne Stahnke."

  • Hard to believe that he was 19 when he composed this - just unbelievable!

  • AMPICO RECORDING

  • I love this recording...
