My recording of Rachmaninoff's Prelude Op.23 No.5 - one of his most popular (or overplayed

) works. Enjoy, all feedback is welcome!!

You are playing it already very well.
But I feel that it has to be more turbulent, more...Slavic. Maybe you can spice it up by pushing the tempo a bit or making greater dynamic contrasts.
good job

It is technically basically solid, but why is your left foot planted on the ground?! It is a very important tool in this piece; it is standard to incorporate some una corda into the bass register. Can you play the triplets more softly, and try to get more legato when transitioning to them?
