1919 Rachmaninoff recording.

90 years ago, Rachmaninoff sat down at a piano and played this:

:omg:

This belongs in the Rachmaninoff subforum. You of all people should know better

bartók plays bartók- whole album of this if anyone wants to slsk it from me

bartok's suite is unbelievable. im about 2 months away from perfecting i hope.

rachmaninoff playing chopin's nocturne no.2. perfect

i prefer Daniel Barenboim's nocturnes.

i hate all chopin nocturnes

well fuck you then you big fat prick.

lol

:(.

i honestly love every single thing composed by chopin

fave ravel, alborada del gracioso

i cant even single out a ravel solo piano piece. they are all basically perfect.

Pavane pour infante defuncte is one the only pieces of music to ever literally make me cry, as queer as it sounds. i listened to it at the time my grandad was dying from cancer and it literally makes me cry when i listen to it.

fuckkkkkkkkkk ahh

well this seems to just be a general piano thread now so

the late horatiu radulescu's clepsydra for 16 sound icons (pianos with the lids taken off, put on their sides and struck or bowed.)

That is an upsettingly good piece of music.
