The only person who loves Rachmaninoff more than me, but just for a tiny little very minuscule bit. hehe Lovely performance, Mehana. Thank you! I loved these "new" (I'm 1 month late) Rach Op. 32 recordings you uploaded to your channel. I just love it.

@mehanaellispiano 4 ай бұрын
Thank you! Yes, Volodos is not only an incredible pianist but also such a skilled transcriber. Many of his transcriptions sound very close to how I imagine Rachmaninoff himself would have arranged these pieces for solo piano. This one reminds me a bit of the composer's original solo transcription of "Lilacs."

@@mehanaellispiano Wow, that answer was so unexpectedly kind. I'm stupidly picky with my youtube subscriptions but you've just gained a new sub! You got me excited to see your new recording of Zdes khorosho and... Your comment on being lucky to get to practice on that beauty, imo the way you said that showed your love for the instrument, for music. I want to absorb a bit of that! A year and a half ago I started learning piano but recently me and my beloved professor, very first professor, just had to part ways. I'm heartbroken and had not touched the keys ever since. I know its hoping for too much, but I hope following your content will help me overcome this dark phase. All that said, thank you and keep up the good work. With love, from your brand new brazilian sub, me!

@@mateuscosta787 I'm very sorry to hear that you and your professor had to part. If you'd like to talk more, feel free to send me a message on Instagram now that we have connected! I am always happy to chat. I hope you'll find some inspiration to keep going with piano. I'm curious, how did you first hear or come to know of "Zdes Khorosho"? I think I only found this piece by searching to see if Rachmaninoff wrote any songs for voice, and was pleasantly surprised to see how much he wrote, this one included! My most favorite interpreter of Rachmaninoff's music is Nikolai Lugansky, and I always listen to him when I need musical motivation. Rachmaninoff himself was incredible as a recording artist, just listen to him play "Lilacs": kzfaq.info/get/bejne/gs9peJqqmeC6eZs.html&ab_channel=ClassicalMasterpieces. Sometimes, it can even be better to find inspiration in non-piano music too. A recent discovery for me was Rachmaninoff "The Bells": kzfaq.info/get/bejne/i8qFh8t91dumemg.html&ab_channel=olla-vogala. While the work has some very intense parts, it showcases the composer's genius lyricism and orchestration in the second movement, titled "The Mellow Wedding Bells". Much of Rachmaninoff's music has an almost spectral quality to it, and I've fallen in love with his music during this special 150th anniversary year of his birth. I'd love to share some other pieces, by Rachmaninoff or by other composers, and definitely interested in hearing what music you love too! Cheers from California! 😁

Morning practice of Rachmaninoff Concerto No. 1, third movement. Although this is not the most technically demanding part of the movement, I still find it incredibly difficult given the fine line between romantic and overly-sentimental.

hiiii i love ur playing!! could u tell me which score u used? also did you change some things here and there? im gonna play this soon but im having trouble finding a good score :/
@mehanaellispiano 10 ай бұрын
Thank you, happy to hear you enjoyed! I used the score which Alexey Yemtsov transcribed, available for download here: yemtsov.com/piano-transcriptions/. However, I heard this version on KZfaq (kzfaq.info/get/bejne/qaeYgpt6qaethKc.html&ab_channel=rach3master) and tried to recreate the ossia ending in a similar fashion. A previous rendition of this is on my channel where I played the ending a bit differently. Also differing from Yemtsov's score are a few harmonic changes, such as the G# to G in the l.h. at around 1:35, but it's up to you to decide whether to experiment or stick to the original score. Hope you have a wonderful time learning this beautiful piece!
