Best recording of Rach 2 and Rach 3 May 07, 2011, 09:30:03 AM by cazico

Hi!
I never get bored of listening to these two giants - in my opinion the two best piano concertos the world has ever seen.
However, there are many recordings of these two concertos. Which one of them do you prefer?
My favourite is by far the recording from 1965 by Earl Wild. Except the cadenza in Rach 3, 1st mvt. - I don't like that one in Wild's.
What do you think?

I'm going to learn Rach 3! Am I crazy? February 15, 2011, 08:55:51 PM by animae

Hello,
I'm 18 years old and have been playing the piano for 9 years now. I'm grade 8 standard and would like to play something challenging and enjoyable. I heard the Rach 3 concerto in the movie Shine 3 years ago. I didn't pay too much attention to it at first but recently I heard a performance of the Rach 3 ossia cadenza and thought it was revolutionary...
For the past 2 years I've been very narrow in selecting composer's works to learn - J.S. Bach was regarded as the greatest composer who lived. However, since listening to Rach, his concerto No. 3 takes me beyond the muddled presence and allows me to touch something timeless and eternal. I've never played any Romantic pieces before. I've always focused on Baroque music and rarely stepped into the classical realm. Although there's something daring me to learn this piece... but... Should I attempt it? I heard only a select few professional pianists have played this successfully with true interpretation and emotion but I believe I can too.
Should I?
PS: I have very large hands if that's useful.

Piano concertos: Rachmaninov Vs. Tchaikovsky March 24, 2010, 09:47:31 AM by bluesyboy1
|
Ok now, I now that there in no "versus" as far as comparing these majestic composers. I was wondering however about the age-old question. I would like to ask the learned, perhaps preferably those who have played the concertos the following questions. Is Rachmaninov's 3rd piano more difficult pianistically than Tchaikovsky's first? Which has a more difficult keyboard work?

Rachmaninoff 3rd piano concerto in d-minor op.30 August 29, 2009, 08:47:00 AM by gorucan
|
Hello there.
I'm practising this specific concerto to perform it with orchestra next year. So far I've done 1st movement with "hard" cadenza, and i read 2nd and 3rd movements. For the 3rd I'd say I can play a bit less than half of it in tempo.
I thought it would be nice to hear Your opinions on that piece, maybe someone has to tell me something what could help me with practising or inspire me.
And don't suggest "The Shine", becaue I already watched it shortly after i learned 1st movement
Best greetings to all, Jure

New Rach 3 recording! May 11, 2009, 08:56:26 AM by clicquot

Hello,
I've had the opportunity to review a new release of the Rach 3 concerto, performed by Vitaly Samoshko. I found his '99 recording of the concerto already one of the best ever (although the recording was technically not perfect)- he won the Queen Elisabeth Concours with this performance. This new recording is the one i've been waiting for since a long time!! Technically, the recording is perfect and audiophiles among us will be happy with this. Although a SACD release would have been top! My thought: Vitally's playing is relaxed, virtuose and detailed following the correct rhythm.(Sorry my technical piano knowledge is yet rather small ) There is no rush (cfr Argerich etc?), the orchestra joins the pianist in his playing: the piano is the central and crucial star, but has respect for the orchestra. The release comes with a DVD of the performance which is a great bonus! It's also nice to hear the pianist's thoughts about the piece in an extra interview. Expected to be in the cdshops around the end of may.

"I was in Poland the past summer to give 2 concerts. At the last minute they requested some Chopin, which I had not brought with me. So, I google-searched for classical downloads and found your site. I was able to print out excellent editions of the pieces I needed within minutes. To find the scores locally would have been inpossible as it was a smaller town, the nearest music store 45 minutes away."

"Piano Street has been a wonderful tool to me as both a pianist and a piano teacher. I can browse the collection for pieces I want to play and/or have my students play. The difficulty rating system that Piano Street uses enables me to search by difficulty level for pieces at my students' various playing levels. It is helpful that many of the scores include an audio clip of the piece being played. I have recommended to my advanced students that they also join Piano Street since getting sheet music from there is a much less expensive alternative to ordering and paying for the music.
