rachmaninov prelude opus 23 no.7

on: April 01, 2005, 06:46:26 PM

AWESOME PIECE , aint it???/
i am working on it now. just wanted to know if you guys have played it ( i am sure a lot of you have) . i am practising this piece now, and am not happy with how i play in many parts. Any suggestions on how to pull off a good performance?? what parts did you guys find the hardest? how did you practise . i know there is a some tricky pedal work in this too. Any comments are welcome.
Also, can any one suggest good recordings of it, the only ones i have heard are ashkenazy and biret, both of which are really good. Any other good recordings???
