  • 6:28 -- an overwhelming sense of longing, pain, and hope suddenly captures you. Agree?

  • @z1Amii .... No! ... Dont agree!

    "Pain" is too drastic a word. Too harsh.

    I think better is: " an overwhelming sense of longing, and hope suddenly captures you. Agree?

  • OMG this piece is so beautiful! I'm in 8th grade and I'm gonna play this in a few months! I love how many places us cellos get to sing out! CELLO POWER!

  • Your comparison is very cold and not practical. I simply admire both Beethoven AND Rachmaninoff.

    Relax and admire...

  • Perhaps more at the start, adding 'disappointment' into the mix. Reminds me of Tch's #6. That's deep inner pain and suffering if I've ever heard it....

  • Every time I hear this symphony I a. Swept away with emotion and beauty. Especially around 3:36-4:10 . This is, by far, one of my personal favorites.

  • Gran sinfonia de Rachmaninov. Gran compositor

  • @YTM021807 i agree. i definitely hear longing (not uncommon when i listen to rachmoninoff.). i would omit overwhelming though. it seems to be a longing that is almost welcomed.

  • @YTM021807

    Longing can be painful

  • Sublime!!!!!

  • Carlos Miguel Prieto es la onda!!!

  • Superb performance - amazing sonorities. Beautifully done.

  • @xoL0VExo Thank you! The new symphony Hall called "Sala Sinfonica Pablo Casals" is now in full use since 2009 .... and I am still waiting for the repetition of this concert! I will let you know if that musical opportunity happens!
