OMG! This IS the most beautiful piano piece I have aver heard in the history of my life! Rachmaninoff, I think, is the best classical composer/pianist ever. His 2nd concerto is definitely the highlight of his works but also his Variations on a theme by Paganini is also magnificent. If I got the chance to meet one famous person and spend a year with him/her, I would choose him. I am currently working on his 2nd concerto and his Variations on Paganini. MAGNIFICENT! MAGNIFICENT! MAGNIFICENT!! :-)
Wow
I have listened to Rachmaninov's piano concertos performed many times by many soloists, but I must say that Simon Trpceski renders the pieces featured on this album with such brilliance, it made me question whether I had truly heard them before. I was driving to work the other day and the classical music station I usually listen to featured the alla breve movement of the 3rd concerto from this album and I almost had to pull over, so intense were the emotions I felt. The Royal Liverpool Philharmonic was also magnificent in their accompaniment. As a pianist, it is one thing to see the notes on the music and play, and something quite different to bring the music alive with such energy as these performers do. I was ecstatic to see it available on iTunes.
Bravo! and thank you! These recordings have replaced my previous selections of Rachmaninov on my playlist.
