  • Eva Can you tell me where this recording was. Was it at the Festival Hall in London

  • @Phil19P -

    It is the Grand Hall of the Moscow Conservatoire.

  • This is beyond the sort of banal criticism one finds here. Please recognise this as a great performance by a very great artist, and count your lucky stars that it exists for us all to hear.

  • I am very glad that so much videos with mr. Gilels are posted to you tube these days. This is certainly a name to be remembered, certainly also in relation to the Rachmaninoff preludes. Thanks for posting (R.Metz, the Netherlands).

  • This is bold, daring, poetic story telling. Not for mental midgets.

  • I'm 15 and just learned the piece, anybody want to comment my interpretation?

  • Bravo!!! Wonderful!!!

  • BRAVO

  • Davvero un gigante del pianoforte!!!!!

  • @uhartchristian Exactly, every note is crystal clear and Gilels' performance has surreal musicality and passion, he was all about artistry and "feeling" the composition for himself and for his audience :-))

    Everything Gilels performed was extraordinary and we are fortunate to have a chance to hear this. Thanks to EwaHartwig for sharing :-))

  • @mrsmetz1

    I truly agree with you and also want to express my thanks to R. Metz

  • When the piano become sing!!!! marvellous
