Tracklist: 00:00:00 Symphony No. 2 in E Minor, Op. 27: I. Largo - Allegro moderato (Arranged as Piano Concerto by Alexander Warenberg) 00:18:36 Symphony No. 2 in E Minor, Op. 27: II. Adagio - Molto allegro (Arranged as Piano Concerto by Alexander Warenberg) 00:31:48 Symphony No. 2 in E Minor, Op. 27: III. Allegro vivace (Arranged as Piano Concerto by Alexander Warenberg)
A few years ago, shortly after the release of this album, I attended a concert at, well let's just say a not so distant, snobbish institution with a good orchestra, on an evening when they performed Rach's 2nd Symphony. Introducing the work, the conductor sneaked in an insult to Warenberg's work. She said, "It is perfect just as it is. It needs no piano." Well, miss purist, it may not NEED a piano, but Rachmaninoff himself was one of countless classical composers who felt free to take other people's work, ARRANGE it, and create "variations" that are masterpieces and rightly celebrated by the listening world. And by any metric, the success of Warenberg's "Rach 5" testifies for itself that it earns a place in the classical world. Witness, too, the number of world famous pianists who have performed it.
I listened to this for like 3 years without the slightest idea that it wasn't genuine Rachmaninoff. Gotta say, incredibly impressive; Warenberg is truly brilliant.
Rachmaninoff. Great composer. My favourite is Piano Concerto No 2. Gives a great feeling throughout, especially the delicate second movement. My girlfriend who was in depression, I dedicated it to her, and when we sat down to listen to it and heard the second movement, our love grew and she showed signs of coming out of depression. Thanks Rachmaninoff
For those of you who see this as a disgrace, don't forget about Liszt rearranging Paganini or Vaughan Williams rearranging Tallis or the thousands of other rearranged pieces. A few aspects of this could have been done a bit better, but for as daring and well executed this piece is it's undoubtedly an admirable arrangement.
First allow to congratulate you on taking this risk! I am delighted and surprised - it not only sounds genuine Rachmaninoff - it "feels" Rachmaninoff - the languid harmonics - the feverish outbursts , the melancholy underlying it all! BRAVO to Alexander Warenberg for his scoring of the piano part! BRAVO to Brilliant classics for again finding great talent in the artists: Janáček Philharmonic Orchestra, Wolfram Schmitt-Leonardy (piano), Theodore Kuchar conducting! The orchestra provides a full, rich tapestry for the the excellent pianist! And not to forget - good technical staff at Brilliant to bring the energy and vibrant sound to live without creating a mash-up of it all. I will order my CD copy today - this is a must-have for all Rachmaninoff fans out there!!!
I am currently playing trumpet for a student orchestra lead by Theodore Kuchar, he is a phenomenal conductor and great man. It brings me great joy to listen to this recording.
This work by Warenberg is just monumental...the Symphony per-se is another Rachmaninoff jewel but with this piano part included in it, it does make it such a great masterpiece of modern romanticism...to me the best kind!
The second symphony can move me to tears when performed really well. (Previn, Sanderling,Steinberg, Kletzki and others) and the Rachmaninoff 5 is a nice adaption of that wonderful symphony. Not a musical snob am I and I would like to think that the great man himself would approve.
Amazing!! It truly feels like Rachmaninoff! The atmosphere, the orchestration, the lyricism, the ... everything! Work of genius! :) :) :) An absolutely must-buy!
I stumbled upon this on accident, I think it is extremely underrated and needs a lot more attention. I'd also like to hear different interpretations of this piece and especially the cadenza. I love it!
I love this! Not without reservations - Rach himself would have written a more virtuosic piano part, but Mr Warenberg has done a remarkable job of providing an “important” part which does nicely for the purposes of the project. It’s a bit difficult to get past the rearrangement of the four movements to create three, it’s rather jolting to the familiar listener, but all of this being said, I have never been able listen to Rachmaninoff’s symphonic works without missing the nonexistent piano part! So kudos to you guys for daring to do this, I must say overall it’s tremendously satisfying.
Tantalizing arrangement of the symphony as a concerto, one wonders what Rachmaninov himself would have done. It might actually be more different than what we are listening to here.
The transformation of Rachmaninov's Symphony #2 into a concerto certainly used all 88 keys if not 97. The initial listen was shocking. The second, a fantasy filled with Rach idioms as if Scriabin had strung them together for Prokofiev to play while avuncular Tchaikovsky supervised. The piano part is so intensely Rachmaninovish that the symphony itself seems, at moments, un-Rach like. Yet, I came to love it and I believe Sergei Vasilyevich would be delighted by it. It is not Rachmaninov but it's fascinating and beautiful. Бо́же, Царя́ храни́!
I love this work. It is essential Rachmaninov at his best, even if Warenberg helped to deliver it. The Symphony in its original form is beautiful, but occasionally repetitive and a bit too lengthy. This arrangement strikes the right balance.
I hear a bit more of Rach 2. This symphony has a more literal and straightforward romanticism compared to Rach 3 which is more moody, obscure, and dense.
I stumbled upon this piece through Klimt Atelier des lumieres exhibition as cadenza of the first movement was used as a soundtrack. As soon as i heard the piece during the exhibition, i was 100percent sure that it's rachmaninoff's composition. So i had to search for all the classic music used as soundtrack for that exhibition and found out it was part of piano concerto no5.
Dear Brilliant Classics, Good Morning From Mumbai, India. Rachmaninoff is my favourite Russian Composer along with Tchaikovsky, Borodin, Prokofiev, and others. His String Quartets are quite tuneful. I have been preoccupied with some matters particularly whether there will be a War between India and Pakistan in the near future and hence did not like this Video when it was published yesterday. Piano Classics over the past year has posted some Excellent You Tube Videos on the Piano Works Of Rachmaninoff specially by up and coming Pianists. This Specific You Tube Video is a breath of Fresh Air IMHO. I was wondering whether I could ask you Guys For a Request. I am interested in listening to the Complete String Quartets of Carl Nielsen. If It does not fall afoul of Dutch Copyright Laws Could You please Upload them ?? Of Course, If They are In Print CD''s I understand. Have a Great Day and a Great Week -End.
Good morning Eustace! Thank you for your request, but unfortunately we don't have the right licence to upload Nielsen's String Quartets at the moment. If you have any other requests feel free to ask us!
I really like the 3rd symphony, I've always had problems with this 2nd symphony, but it's amazing how it got more interesting in this piano concerto transcription. Nevertheless, I must say that the work does not exactly have the atmosphere of Rachmaninoff's piano concertos, it is more reminiscent of a Brahms with the language of Rachamaninoff.
I think Waremberg did a pretty good job arranging it. Rachmaninoff's Symphony no. 2 works better as a symphony, and this arrangement works better as a concerto. I personally enjoy them both because the two pieces give each one a different but incredible vibe. Despite the fact that some people don't enjoy at all or that they enjoy this arrangement less than the symphony, we can't ignore that the whole symphony lasts 40 minutes, and everything is done perfectly. Maybe this might not sound like Rachmaninoff for some people, but we have to admit it: this concerto is a complete masterpiece!
This was a first time exposure to this strange work for me. Pianistically the first movement of V seemed a horror stretch, but overall the work was enervating and very enjoyable in this form. Thank you.
C’est ma foi très réussi ; sans le savoir on n’y voit que du feu ; justement je me suis positif mis à écouter autrement la symphonie no 2 ! Some place are more Rach than Rach ! Very nice balance between piano and orchestra !
the rhapsody is a theme et variation, and also a rhapsody. Not in normal concerto form so no typically you wouldn’t consider it a concerto, but I guess you could call it concert music, as it is piano and orchestra. I’d consider it a fantasy before a piano concerto
@@donnytello1544 Yeah, but by the same logic we wouldn't call this Rach 5 because its not 100% Rachmaninov and it's a symphony, but I would still argue in Glyn Evans's favor because the rhapsody is a solo instrument set with an entire orchestra, and though it's 1 movement, you can see it's broken into three parts, one at the end of Var. X, and at the end of Var. XVIII. The middle section being slower than the beginning and ending sections.
Hello Sebastian, you can click on this link brilliant-classics.lnk.to/RachmaninoffPianoNo5, and find all available music platforms. Hope this will help!
@@BrilliantClassics looks like it no longer exists for streaming or download on Spotify :(( such a shame as I’ve grown to love this piece over the last few weeks. Any idea what’s happened to it?
There's an interesting precedent in that Tchaikovsky himself recast as a piano concerto the Symphony No. 6 which he discarded in favor of the immortal "Pathétique" - see e.g. ruclips.net/video/HRsN6RwNBZQ/видео.html.
Gorgeous!!! To seat for an hour to hear a symphony, now with a piano soloist is more appealing to many. And everything has been done very accordingly. Later on, better pianists will bring more brilliance to this version. Beethoven did something similar with his violin concerto. Lets RECYCLE. Nobody wants to hear the 4th and the 1st is seldom played. So.... Purists, let the music be!!!!
Uhm, okay. I understand that when someone like Rachmaninoff stops composing concertos, there is a longing for just one more. It's an interesting piece, and worth a listen, but I still prefer the purely symphonic version.
Die korrekte Bezeichnung wäre wohl: Rachmaninoff vergewaltigt. Wenn man um das stete Streben des Komponisten nach Verbesserung, Perfektion, Ringen um die Ausgewogenheit der Form, Suche nach adäquater Tonsprache und die ständigen Selbstzweifel weis, kann man diese schlechte Imitation des Stiles des 3. Konzertes wohl kaum mögen. Die 2. Sinfonie ist perfekt so wie sie ist und bedarf keiner Umwandlung in ein Pseudo Konzert!
I agree! The piano obligato that was clumsily thrown into the pages of the 2nd Symphony bears very little resemblance to Rachmaninoff's pianism. Rachmaninoff would have been *embarrassed* to hear this substandard schlock posing as his work! The true "5th Concerto" is his Rhapsody On a Theme of Paganini.
Guys, what??? Are you not hearing moments like 27:18 (link: ruclips.net/video/wQ2vTIO_FX0/видео.html ), or you are saying this is "weak?" What would you consider a stronger Rach-inspired arrangement or section? I haven't heard better.
Запад как обычно, занят извращением. В данном случае извращением музыки Рахманинова. Это как поверх картины Рафаэеля намалевать краской нечто непонятное. Фортепианная партия очень слабая, "никакая".

Honestly, this is one of my favorite piano concertos, despite the fact Rachmaninoff himself did not write the piano part. Bravo Mr. Warenberg!
I listened to this for like 3 years without the slightest idea that it wasn't genuine Rachmaninoff. Gotta say, incredibly impressive; Warenberg is truly brilliant.
It is exactly Rachmaninov's Emperor Concerto. Bravissimo Warrenberg. Thanks for sharing.
Rachmaninoff. Great composer. My favourite is Piano Concerto No 2. Gives a great feeling throughout, especially the delicate second movement. My girlfriend who was in depression, I dedicated it to her, and when we sat down to listen to it and heard the second movement, our love grew and she showed signs of coming out of depression. Thanks Rachmaninoff
Funny you say that, because Rachmaninov composed that piece as a dedication to his therapist for helping him get out of deep depression
I think in the circumstances calling him "Rachyboy" would've been a nice touch.🤪
👏👏👏, music heals, my friend.
@@darrylschultz6479 HAHAHA ok I'm gonna call him that now 🙃👌
For those of you who see this as a disgrace, don't forget about Liszt rearranging Paganini or Vaughan Williams rearranging Tallis or the thousands of other rearranged pieces. A few aspects of this could have been done a bit better, but for as daring and well executed this piece is it's undoubtedly an admirable arrangement.
agreed, in fact rachmaninoff himself was well know for his arrangements
Did Rach write this or no?
@@Bozzigmupp no he wrote the orchestrated part however, the piano is an arrangement by warenberg
Honestly, the piano arrangement sounds like Rachmaninoff..My ear is fresh.. and this really catches my ear like his other work.
I consider a disgrace to call it Rachmaninov's 5th piano concerto, it should be named like Rachmaninov - Warenber piano concerto 5
I feel like I just found out the forbidden sauce
That Adagio is so faithfully transcribed and performed in the spirit of Rachmaninoff it brought tears to my eyes.
Human tear tests: 3:43, 15:06, 18:37, 23:50, 27:54, 29:15
yes!!!
太对了
I cried continuously the whole way through just to be sure I wouldn't fail the test!😖😆
What about 21:28?
I would have been easier just to say the whole adagio is a tear jerker.

I am currently playing trumpet for a student orchestra lead by Theodore Kuchar, he is a phenomenal conductor and great man. It brings me great joy to listen to this recording.
The pianist on this piece is really super fantastic! Loved listening to this . . . (all four times)!
The cadenza starts at 11:09 if you are interested
The ending recaps the opening motive of the first PC is a nice touch. full circle
This work by Warenberg is just monumental...the Symphony per-se is another Rachmaninoff jewel but with this piano part included in it, it does make it such a great masterpiece of modern romanticism...to me the best kind!

An absolutely must-buy!
No, it doesn't sound like Rachmaninoff. Have you ever heard anything from him??? I am sorry, but like; no??
Only Rachmaninov sounds like Rachmaninov, the piano doesn't totally sounds like in the other concerto, there is not the same balance
@@alexl4135 you're wrong
it's sound like 99% Rachmaninov , why?
Maybe cymbals too noise!
Incredibly creative and beautiful. Thanks to all of you who made this possible.
I stumbled upon this on accident, I think it is extremely underrated and needs a lot more attention. I'd also like to hear different interpretations of this piece and especially the cadenza. I love it!
The end of the second movement is unbelievable. Better than his second concerto.
I hope you mean the end of the same movements from his 2nd symphony not from this concerto,even if I like this arrangement
I admire the work put in to this, the product is fascinating and beautiful. I have no doubt the composer agrees
I love this! Not without reservations - Rach himself would have written a more virtuosic piano part, but Mr Warenberg has done a remarkable job of providing an “important” part which does nicely for the purposes of the project.

No thank you. I'd rather listen to the actual Symphony No. 2 instead of a reworking of it.
Well you chose the wrong video then.
It's that a joke? Because if It's not, you could have omitted your moment, couldn't you?
I'd rather appreciate both?
I agree! The piano obligato that was clumsily thrown into the pages of the 2nd Symphony bears very little resemblance to Rachmaninoff's pianism. Rachmaninoff would have been *embarrassed* to hear this substandard schlock posing as his work!
The true "5th Concerto" is his Rhapsody On a Theme of Paganini.
Feeling the piano part is a bit weak.
Understatement of the decade!
