Anyone have or know of a website online with the sheet music of the Rach 1?  If you have it please pm me.  Greatly appreciated.  Thanks.

Actually it's Russian with the Cyrllic typeset, which my browser does not support so it displays as gibberish. With a bit of phoenetic guesswork, I got a direct link to the PDF:


1st concerto (edited Roizman L. I.):
https://www.piano.ru/scores/rahmaninov/concertos/rah-con-1-1ed-I.pdf
https://www.piano.ru/scores/rahmaninov/concertos/rah-con-1-1ed-II-III.pdf

ah that makes more sense...

funny though, seeing that i got there from the "ENGLISH" version of the site.

there's another edition just under that link. i can't be bothered to copy and paste like you have... meh

Well then, don't bother yourself now!

1st concerto (unedited):
https://www.piano.ru/scores/rahmaninov/concertos/rah-con-1-I.pdf
https://www.piano.ru/scores/rahmaninov/concertos/rah-con-1-II-III.pdf

The first version is editted by L. I. Roizman (their anglicization), the second set doesn't mention an editor.

Edit: Roizman apparently adds fingering.

The first links posted is that of the original version, which I think has a much better first movement cadenza than the revised version i.e. the second set of links.
