20s years very idealistic conception of the life

Ravel’s music is so magical to me.

This is not what he wrote when he was 18, it's the (drastically) revised version he wrote in his 30s Use facts not misinformation

All four, nay, five piano concertos are great, so is his second symphony and everything else. Have yet to familiarize myself with his first and third symphony. Another great composer almost overlapping Rachmaninov's lifetime and lifespan is the nearly forgotten Alexander von Zemlinsky.

AAAAAAAAAA I LOVE RAVELL SO MUCHHH AAAAAAAAAAAAA HOW CAN ANYTHING SOUND LIKE THIS A AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Ravel So good

Strong Wagner's Tristan influence. Must be an early work still working on his original voice

great comments in the score. Who added them?

Sounds like Tristan und Isolde overture

Au Countre. Just irritating.

"How is this concerto so underrated?", you ask. The answer is as simple as it is tragic: We live in a time when too many people, especially shallow, narrow-minded people, and especially shallow, narrow-minded Americans, are craving easy listening because they can't be bothered to expand their listening horizons to include music it takes just a little extra effort to understand and appreciate. Put simply, this concerto is so underrated because it's got more to say than too many listeners are used to hearing, so naturally, because they'd prefer unconscious escape to mind-opening substance, they tune it out - a truly self-defeating mistake in this case!

🙏❤🌹 Sergei 🌹❤🙏

This concerto is NOT underrated at all.

0:57 this arpeggio..... damn this is so beautiful

The main motif of God Of War PS4 can be related from the first bars of this.

Request: Analyze Ginastera's Piano Concerto 2 4th mvt and ill be happy

ラフマニノフ好きの日本人です。作曲趣味です。素人です。 若いころ当時買った譜面にこのシーンは自分もコードナンバーを付けてますね。 この動画とはちょっと違っていますが。。。 愛着があります。 その後大人になってラフマニノフ生誕150年に「ぼくのラフマニノフ」というオマージュ作品を 書いたのですがコード進行が大いに役立ちました。 ラフマニノフは本当にいいですよね。。。

This totally inspired me for the 3rd movement of my quartet. It’s just so damn cool!

Bellissimo ❤

So beautiful! Thank you for sharing. Take care.

I compose piano concerto pieces. My heart is warmed by this one.

clicked on this as soon as i saw the pizz in 6/8. i KNEW it was ravel straight away. hands down my favourite string quartet piece ❤❤ his music sounds so... idk how to describe it? lush and vibrant? colourful? idk man i just love ravel ppl should listen to more than bolero

Wow 😮👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻✨🌸🎉🎊

Very impressive, made me smile. I’m a musician too, and I hope you keep pursuing music as it is truly one of life’s greatest treasures. Wishing you the best

Debussy heard this quartet by Ravel and said to Ravel: “Do NOT change a single note of it!” Sanjosemike (no longer in CA)

😂

Reminds me of Scriabins first piano concerto aswell

the whole work is just luscious...

The French horns sounded like Tchaikovsky's 5th.

I hear some Brahms in there

Wonderful music

@taylee thank you SO MUCH. Can you do the same for the first movement? Or at least the bit before the marching bit I can only read chords and seeing it spelt out like this is such a game changer. Thanks!!

😮💪👏

When you've learned the piano part for almost the entire concerto, and then turn to the last page....

The final 20 seconds remind me of Tchaikovsky's piano concerto no. 1 finale, for some reason.

Great

All the instruments play together at the very end; I truly love that! Hear the concert of Anna Fedorova, it is glorious too!

Not as beautiful as Tchaikovsky or Dvorak andante from their respective Symphonies Especially Dvorak new world second mouvement !

it is indeed great music, but it's overshadowed by the (miles better) second and third concertos. their melodies and harmonies are more appealing.

Grwat work of Rachmaminoff

Hay una versión estupenda del 4to de Rachmaninoff por Arturo Benedetti Michelangeli!

Sounds like crapGPT

thank you for posting a moment in the concerto that isnt the end of the 2nd mov, this is my favorite moment in the whole concerto

I’m a simple man. I hear an orchestral major 7th, I cry.

That Ab7 is probably an innovative, creative use of aug6

The Rach is THE best classical composer by a mile. He knows how to write a simple melody, develop it to an utter climax and pierce your heart with pure emotion. Chopin and many others can do it similarly but no where near Sergei

Always ends with Bom Bom-a Bom = Rach Man-i-Nov

Thanks for the analysis! Tremendous

So sad that we dont have a horowitz recording of this
