How can anyone dislike this? ..... Have they no soul?
-
surprise ! great - the second concert is the best and this is a fantastic performance
-
it's like every instrument has there own solo part and every part is very beautiful especially the brass instruments :))
-
Earl Wild had limitless technique, but I do find fault with a few things in this recording. The orchestra is made to play in a mechanical and harsh fashion due, I assume, to the decisions of the conductor. This is not Wild's fault. However, Wild himself gets a harsh sound from the piano very often in this recording, and that is his own doing for sure. Wild also makes abrupt, strange musical decisions in some places, though he voices everything so well that it's interesting to hear him anyway

Listening to this magnificent concert is such a treat!! Thank you Mr. Rachmaninoff for leaving heaven for awhile and allowing us to enjoy your music!!

This is a superb performance. However, if one can tolerate the tape hiss the CDs of Rachmaninoff playing this and his other concerti as well as "Rhapsody" blow this out of the water. That's hardly a surprise. Rach was a phenomenal pianist and he composed the concerti :).
While this is a matter of taste. Sviatoslav Richter with the Warsaw P O conducted by Stanislaw Wislocki is just superb and I place it above this. This is a recording from 1959 and Richter was in his prime. DG Panorama.

My God, what a great performance! One of the finest I have ever heard, right up there with Byron Janis, Rubinstein, Kapell, and Cliburn, not to mention Rachmaninoff's own recording.
