This is the peak of humanity , leaving aside all the evils that we create all the disasters that we bring upon ourselves , this is where the beautiful part of the human being is demonstrated and made as clearly visible as possible by Rachmaninoff. the feeling of love is indescribable, it is what keeps as humane even in this tragic downfall that we are partaking in . whether it is love towards a partner , a family member or simply anything in nature , i wish for every person to feel this sheer extraordinary emotion consisting of different energies.. pain and joy. may there be peace in our world.

This movement especially swept over me with such intensity...the deep longing quality when the piece rises in such poignant intensity. Nothing beats a live performance with the right acoustics. I was in tears with the emotion overwhelming me. An experience that I can still recall almost 5 decades later. So grateful to the composers like Rachmaninoff who create such ethereal beauty.

This, if not already discussed before in this forum, may help explain and be of some interest to some. American pop rock artist Eric Carmen co-wrote "Never gonna fall in love again" in the mid 70s which became a number one hit on the Billboard Easy Listening chart. If you listen carefully to the opening of the movement and again at 3:30, and at 8:20 to 8:30 ( solo horn followed by solo violin ) and 8:55 to 9:10 ( solo clarinet ) , you'll hear the melody Carmen "lifted" from Rachmaninov's composition. The lyrics to the song are as follows: No use pretending things can still be right There's really nothing more to say I'll get along without your kiss tonight Just close the door and walk away Never gonna fall in love again I don't want to start with someone new ‘Cause I couldn't bear to see it end Just like me and you No, I never want to feel the pain Of remembering how it used to be Never gonna fall in love again Just like you and me At first we thought that love was here to stay The summer made it seem so right But like the sun we watched it fade away From morning into lonely night Songwriters: Eric Carmen / Sergei Rachmaninoff

I'm just completely unable to get through this one without tears. At several moments, its just THAT powerful. Absolutely unbelievable music. That it is even possible to create something this profound..

Rachmaninoff's works challenge the admiration of all ages . Living in the noise , hustle and bustle of Tokyo in Japan , I sometimes feel like listening to Rachmaninoff's masterpieces that is far from every day life . This is the culmination of Rachmaninoff's aesthetics From Tokyo of the Land of the Rising Sun 🇯🇵 .

You have put into words exactly what I feel about this absolutely sublime music. I very recently attended a live performance of it with the Chicago Symphony Orchestra masterfully conducted by Riccardo Muti, and I warned the people sitting on both sides of me that if it proved to be as magnificent a performance of it that I so fervently hoped it would be, I would very likely breakdown and weep during the second movement, and to please forgive me as I couldn't prevent myself from doing so as I am simply overwhelmed by such incomparable beauty. I am very glad that I did so because it turned out to be an overwhelmingly gorgeous performance of this ravishingly beautiful masterpiece, and it was quite clear that the packed audience was in full agreement with my assessment , as it almost brought the house down in its extended full-throated response at its conclusion. Of the many recorded versions of this masterpiece, I would place this particular one at or very near the top of the list. -- R. A, Verville

Whilst worrying about Coronavirus, Rachmaninov’s calming music brings a sense of calm and order back to my life. A sense of peace and tranquility reigns, just for a while, and I’m reassured that, eventually, all will be well in the world once more. Again, eternal thanks must surely go to the man to whom we shall always be grateful.

I can't stop crying as I listen to this sublime piece. It's an elegy for a world now almost gone.

So beautiful... So emotive. So......everything...

For 15 minutes, close your eyes and just listen. If you are still stressed out after hearing this - your ears don't work.

Ha, ha, ha.... You're right.

The clarinette solo is so sweet and tender that one doesn't want it to find and end. I was begging to repeat it without using my finger...so I had to do it. Imposible not to hear it again and again. And finally all the adagio. Outstanding, really outstanding. That's Rachmaninov!!

Ce mouvement est une conversion de l'existentialisme de l'âme humaine en notes de musique. Il y a une intemporelle,une sublimation de la création qui voyage de la souffrance à l'exaltation de la joie . Sublime création.

Музыка Сергея Васильевича Рахманинова потрясает уникальной глубиной и высотой, окрыляя и одаряя души ликованием!

What kink of magic did Rachmaninov put in this melody. How can he compose such a beautiful melody.i wish i ask him in person all these questions and how he left millions of fan around the world in 2019 moved and shading tears each time they listen to this composition. Im one of them. This melody speaks a million words to me when i dont need to hear words. Thank you again sir Rachmaninov.

I wish Rach could hear these kind words when he was alive. Back in his time, he was considered, well, not very good as a composer, because his music was too beautiful.

This was - and continues to be - therapy for me. Thank you Mr. Rachmaninov.

I am near tears, this is the most beautiful thing I've heard in a while.

Rachmaninoff's music came from deep within. Within his soul, his heart, his being.

I was writing a project for college when I was listened to this song for the first time. The song reached the climax and I literally had to stop what I was doing and just admire the music. Good times.

This movement has so many amazing moments of musical bliss but 14:12 to about 14:30 is the most beautiful, heartfelt moment of music that encapsulates a goodbye or farewell I've ever heard. Absolute chills

This is too painful to listen to. I can't, not just yet. Not right after saying goodbye to someone I love. It hurts beyond anything I've felt. Isn't it incredible? What is it in the music that so clearly describes a goodbye, that says goodbye without saying a single word?

But we are all aware of the fact that to listen once, will never be enough. We are addicted and drawn to Rachmaninoff, that's it in a nutshell.

One of my all-time favorite movements from one of my all-time favorite (and one of the all-time great) composers. At age 2 my mother taught me how to use our old phonograph to play her 78-rpm classical records, so I would stop bugging her to play them. My favorite piece soon became the Rachmaninov 2nd Piano Concerto (still one of my favorites); I played it so often I wore out the spindle holes on the discs and had then to play them one at a time. Sigh. It mirrored (or echoed) my heart, maybe kept it alive, when I was that very young child.

Interesting . . . my mother did that too, starting with children's 78's (Danny Kaye's are still wonderful 60 years later!), then popular classics like the Nutcracker Suite. Started piano at age 4 and I developed absolute pitch., setting my on the course of a professional life in music of which I value composing most. And she, in her nineties, still loves concerts of classical music . . . she says "If classical music disappeared what would replace it?" I don't even know the answer.

La musica di RACHAMANINOV mi fa sognare un mondo migliore. ❤ PACE! ❤

This piece, next to all the feelings of heartbreak and yearning, holds a deep sense of gratefulness. A gratefulness that is so inherently human, it strikes us to the core of our being.

The greatest movement, from the greatest piece of music, from the greatest Russian composer of all time, and arguably one of the very best composers of all time, performed by one of the top 3 orchestras of the world...

After more than half a century, it still nearly takes my breath away. I am indebted always to a fellow tenth-grader in high school who recommended I hear this. Total ecstasy.

I played this tonight with a very good symphony in a nice theater. It's amazing how different it sounds when you are sitting in the horn section. You hear so much of your own line and the lines right around you that you can't tell how lush it sounds in the audience. Amazing writing and one of the most beautiful things created by man.

I was 1st horn in high school 59 years ago and have regretted not continuing when the opportunity presented. Back then when we had a bad day being out of tune, time was off or generally just an off day I put on this adagio movement or the second movement of Rachmaninov’s Piano Conc #2 when I went to bed. As the music flowed the tears began to stream down my cheeks and the stress evaporated. These are my two favorite pieces in the world and I still cry every time I listen! They stir my soul and I know I have been touched by the Hand of God! Phenomenal!!

Rachmaninoff had that purpose in mind. He got you, he got me. It is absolutely breathtaking.

Este adagio es una de las obras más bellas del romanticismo musical. El alma Rachmaninov convertida en música, como flotando en los más nostálgicos recuerdos, o como soñando con partir hacia la Eternidad. La podría escuchar mil veces, y mil veces me emociona hasta el estremecimiento.

This piece makes me want to curl up into a ball and cry with emotions of sorrow, of angst, of jubilation, of love and much more...

The part of beautiful movement that always 'gets' me is from 13:01 that wonderful gossamer- like veiled descending sound. How the hell did he compose it. The whole work, although touched with the maestro's melancholic trademark is truly a work of symphonic art.
