I hope you enjoy this video as it's been by far the most challenging upload yet. I've spent close to 100 hours in the past two weeks programming and recording the orchestra, instrument by instrument on my keyboard. I've invested an incredible amount of time, effort, and money (the orchestral VST libraries can get very pricey) so if you'd like me to record and upload more concertos on my channel you can help me out by donating or becoming a Patron. Thank you!

It's when the tears start to fall... first heard this piece 4 years ago and listened to it uncountably since then yet it still hits the same 💔

My favourite Concerto, I must have it by eleven (11) different artist (including the Maestro Himself, Rachmaninov) No two (2) musicians play it exactly the same, I love them ALL, I love to compare them. I first heard it at the age of thirteen (13) I am seventy-six (76) now, it has taken me through the tough times and rejoiced in the good times . . . it is the sound-track to my life!

I’m loving the effects. It’s obvious that you have put a lot of work into this. Thanks for this!

Amazing, man.. My favorite part of this movement is the ending. It always brings up an image in my head; A sunrise in the park, as if Rachmaninoff was letting out a sigh of relief. He could be in peace again Rachmaninoff wrote the Concerto for his therapist, since he was struggling with depression and his therapist helped him overcome the obstacles

I didn't know that It makes it so much emotional to hear now

One of the highest quality piano video on youtube. I can’t find other words to describe it, it’s perfect imho

I've been looking for this movement with the falling notes for _months!_ Thank you!

I’m surprised no one has said this but “All by myself” takes most of its musical elements from this piece

I love your feeling of the ending piece, it is honestly one of the most melanchonic and moving interpratations I have heard of that section.

You are HEAVILY underrated!! This was so wonderful and the orchestra sounds so good! Keep it up:)

beautiful rendition well done ! the most gorgeous coda rachmaninoff ever wrote 🥰

This is probably the MOST beautiful piece of all time

Awesome job, this is my favorite movement. I hope this video gets the views it deserves.

what a legend, the time it took to prepare this piece and video must’ve been absolutely crazy

8:44 I love that subtle throwback to his prelude in c sharp minor (beginning of agitato). Those small details is why I love this concerto so much.

Such good playing, I wish I was this good! Keep it up!

Rach's 2nd movements from his concerts are legendary and gorgeous pieces. My fav is the the 4th one ❤️

Wow instant subscribe!!! ❤I’m a classical pianist student at University in Canada and I have to learn Grieg’s Concerto this year. Is there any chance you could program the Grieg’s Concerto and sell it ? (At least the first mouvement) It would take my practices to another level to be able to feel with the orchestra. I searched hard to find a good orchestra accompaniment available on internet but haven't found one. I think there's a market in the educational field where you could find succes! I hope you'll consider it. Good luck for your continuation!

From 10:08 until 11:48 I manifest to one day walk down the aisle to this part. Just, this part. 💖 😊
