Got to go with # 3 on this one.  It encompasses all the emotion in the others in one concerto.  But they are all masterpieces.  Rachmaninoff is one of the few composers I think I know that I don't DISLIKE any thing they wrote.

The 3rd is my favorite as well.  The first is a wonderfully enthusiastic work, and the 2nd, for all its playing, is also a fine piece.  Its musical material is continually of very high value.  It's more awkward than the third, but doesn't make the same incredible demands.

I've never liked the fourth much.

I might play the first this coming year.

For us musicians, the music of Beethoven is the pillar of fire and cloud of mist which guided the Israelites through the desert.  (Roughly quoted, Franz Liszt.)
