1:04 - 1:50 sounds like the apocalypse, I'm always left breathless during this section. You know a concerto is monumental when this cadenza isn't even the peak of it.
Here Volodos omits 2 bars from the bottom of page 26 which he began doing after his performance with Pletnev conducting. Pletnev, when soloist, also omits them and must have told Volodos that Horowitz regarded them as excessive and received the composers permission to omit them during their first meeting in the Steinway basement back in 1928.
@@rainchen7846 yes. Before Horowitz made his first recording with Alburt Coates conducting, he met with Rachmaninoff in the basement of Steinway pianos, in New York back in 1928. Horowitz played the solo with Rachmaninoff playing the orchestra on a 2nd piano. After they played, the composer made a few suggestions as to tempo and possible cuts. The composer omits 66 bars in his own recording. The 2 bars at the bottom of page 26 he regarded as excessive. Van Cliburn, Pletnev, Janis and Andsnses also omit them.
Sorry but it’s not about big hands. The chords are executable by every one, it’s only about playing a lot of notes at the same time, relatively quickly and give a direction to them, musically…

Finally a version of the ossia in synthesia you are a pioneer my friend!
1:27 in love with this part
My favorite Cadenza. I'm also working on the cadenza of Prokofiev's second piano concerto.
Thank for this and Prokofiev (I'm waiting for Prokofiev, really).
would you please consider a synthesia of Fred Hersch solo performance of Cole Porters 'So in Love' ruclips.net/video/zuOZBgsIgeY/видео.html
What a surprise! It's my favorite Cadenza too! :)
My favorite performance of this cadenza too... Volodos does an amazing job of it
I miss you brother
Deep and heavy cadenza

This was from the performance with Mehta conducting, better than the earlier one with Levine conducting.

@@789armstrong Rachmaninoff really approved that?

@@789armstrong Imagine two legendary pianists sitting in one room.....
@@rainchen7846 Yes, its described in detail in Glenn Plaskins biography of Horowitz.
Great!! Another subscriber for you
Rachmaninoff had big hands...
Yes he had

That’s it!
Cool
Epic!

Nice

Thanks
Where are you ma man
heaven
Very nice
Arcadi´s Ossia is the best ever; even better than Sokolov, Bronfman, Wang and Horowitz. Obviously better that the rest of mortal painists.
did Horowitz ever play the ossia cadenza??
@@quantomx07 he did, wonderfully
@@iliketrains839 do u have a link for it? or was it even recorded?
@@quantomx07 ruclips.net/video/H1Tpfvuzyuw/видео.html sorry for the late response
@@iliketrains839 thanks but thats the regular cadenza, not the ossia
not liking that the video is considerably behind compared to the audio
Yeah, but due to Volodos’ phrasing, and the fact that the synthesia is going at a constant rate, I think this is the best we have
