The three greatest Soviet pianists are probably Richter, Gilels and Horowitz (there are others, Yudina, Gavrilov, Ashkenazy, Sofronitszky, Neuhaus, Yosef Zak, ALexandra Tamarkina, Lev Oborin, Lazar Berman) that are also great. Gilels, Richter and Horowit each have a unique apporach to Rachmaninoff./ Richter= raw, soviet, melancholy/ Gilels=gentle, soviet, calm melancholy,/ Horowitz=fantasy, russia, melancholy.

sublime!

It says how we feel about never being able to hold time still...life is nothing but a death of every moment, life is water we can't hold in our hand, bur then, if we could hold time still, there would' nt be any life... so it's sadness but well, the moment is to enjoy having at times a Rachmaninof and a Gilels to accompany us with their beautiful creations

At least the person coughing at the end had enough courtesy to hold it. She probably held her breath the whole two and a half minutes, haha.

Rachmaninov était un génie!

absolute poetry.

maybe just a piano player of Russia can play this like this !!!

This is such a beautiful piece , it brings tears to my eyes. Thank you Sergej Rachmaninov and Emil Gilels.

I agree entirely, he appears to understand Rachmaninoff like no other player, it is very much like watching Daniel Barenboim playing Beethoven, he all but transmogrifies into Ludwig, It is a joy to behold.
And likewise thankyou to all concerned for bringing this Beauty to my ears.

NO WAY is this "mundane" - it's actually a wonderful contrast to the preceding prelude in B minor (h-moll). [Personally, I prefer a somewhat slower tempo, though this interpretation gives it a surprisingly-impish feeling.] Calm also before the last one (Op.32 #13).

Rachmaninoff: Vocalise, Op.34 No.14by truecrypt43,926 views
I think Rachmaninoff and Gilels are a perfect combination. Gilels seems to understand the deeper spirit of this music. It always touches my heart when I hear him play these preludes. How is he able to play this demanding music with his relatively short fingers?
Thanks Rachmaninoff, Gilels and the person who posted these recordings.

Emil Gilels is undeniable one of the best pianists ever. I never heard an interpretation of this prelude No. 11 that comes up to Gilels' mastership
