Piano solo REDUCTION, Paganini rhapsody rachmaninoff

[mjames]

Anyone know a recording of rachs rhapsody? Kinda like how Gershwin played his rhapsody in blue by himself? Yeah something like that. The orchestration kinda bores me so I'd rather listen to the piano only. Anyone know of any recordings like these? YouTube isn't helping.

There's about fourteen squillion of the 18th Variation.

For the whole thing, taking the orchestra out is about like taking cheese off pizza - still edible but not really pizza.

So I'm guessing that's a no? ;(

Would have been cool to hear one though...

Rachmaninoff did a TWO piano reduction, which is probably on YT somewhere.

Found a few, actually prefer it over the normal version.
