You`re really fortunate person to understand this masterpiece at such young age. Please don`t laugh at me, but in my case, it took 56 years to find and appreciate this heavenly music!
I’ve been listening to classical music since I was 12- willingly- but I didn’t appreciate it for its art and beauty until recently at age 29. This is truly a masterpiece.

I cannot even explain what Rachmaninoff’s music does to my mind . I have been listening to his music for years and every single time, every single musical phrase is like a neurotransmitter surge, a burst of life, a first breath. God bless those few people that were born to offer us transcendence.
Sounds a bit boring. First time ive heard. His piano compositions are out of this world but I haven't got time for this kitsch over sentimental syrupy slop 😂
This piece reminds me of my five year old brother who was killed by a drunk driver. I listened to this and just started bawling out crying imagining Vincent in heaven and free from this earth. I miss my sibling, I hope he's in a happier dimension than here..
Bless you. It must be so heartwrenching for you. This music speaks to the soul. I believe our loved ones connect to us through this music when we listen to it, as our souls awaken. Your brother will be with you.
This Adagio is probably the most beautiful movement piece ever composed, I'm not even russian but this is something like a miracle. Politics aside we should never punish artists or art over politics, war, etc. Very few pieces can make me cry like a baby, Rachmaninov makes a wondrous and raw revealing of his soul, and I dare to say, the soul of humanity, something universal...

What a super analogy. I fell in love with this work the first time I heard it. It made my heart yearn so much for the thing that was missing in my life, and sadly, still is.
Yep, actually when I met my ex ,In our first date I feel a tremendous energy that just this movement can represent ,I never had felt a beauty of such level of morale and spiritual Beuty :(
I bought a Rachmaninoff cassette when I was in the Navy and listened to it and other classical pieces while reading to drowned out the sound of all the others in our living quarters....What I did not expect is to fall in love with a piece of music...the violins in this make me tear up almost every time and I don't know why...maybe its just the shear beauty of the piece and my and my mind and body have no other way of expressing what it means to me.
I believe God gifted great composers because God loves music! I think your inner spirit is seeking our eternal God! He is knocking at your door to let Him in! Be safe, be happy and be blessed!
I was about 40 years old when I first heard this song. From a 5.1 surround sound stereo..Then all of a sudden tears came from my eyes and I was immediately caught up in the Spirit world remembering the first time falling in ❤ love ❤❤❤. The first time is extremely beautiful. Everyone should experience the healing power of love.
Woah! I searched for this one cause a kpop group used this as a sample on their song. This is beautiful! If you want to listen, you can search Bye my Monster sung by ONF.
Does anyone else get an intense sense of goodbye from this piece? I always end up crying, feeling like I'm never going to see someone whom I love very much ever again, and I don't even know who, it is as if my soul melts with sadness and reminiscence....
@Amarina E. i totally picture this as a goodbye piece as well! i would love to conduct it for my senior recital or like my final concert when im older!
The Germans have the perfect word for this sensation: "Weltschmerz," literally world-weariness, but probably hard to translate exactly. Just to speak it sounds melancholy!
I will never forget the first time I heard this live in Chicago in 1975 while attending a Navy school at Great Lakes Naval base. It was the Chicago S O performing. 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 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. Thank you , the genius of Rachmaninoff.
As Billy Grahm wrote: There will be peace in the world to the degree that the world receives the ministry of the Savior and Prince of Peace, Jesus Christ. ✝️
For some years after his death Rachmaninov was derided as being out of touch with the modern music world. Well time goes on and now we look upon that opinion with derision. One of the greatest melodists of all time, as long as we have civilization will we enjoy his unique genius.
I played this tonight and I have never cried during a performance, but before I could turn the page to the next movement I had to wipe my tears. Beautiful.
About 10 years ago, I played Shostakovich 5th symphony and I was told that I made half the orchestra cry when I played the oboe solo in the third mvmt. Out of beauty-not agony!
@@excalibur1812 This made me cry spontaneously... I play the Oboe myself (but never played Shostakovitch's 5th symphony). That is such an extraodinary feeling, to really touch people with your own playing. Such a special moment, i bet you will never forget it

@@bileg_sado Вы внимательно изучите биографию композитора. Его истоки, кто воспитывал, у кого учился и где. С кем общался в консерватории и т.д. Потом внимательно прочтите мой комментарий, не уходя от темы.
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
No, you must understand that vile and crooked people shall have music that reflects how profoundly meaningless they are. The masses can only corrupt such beauty. We all have the capacity to appreciate it, classical music belongs to everyone but first we bring ourselves closer to the essence of music and the essence of the human soul. It is all so beautiful, so charming, at least much more so than vulgar jokes and ‘roasts’. Cheers
Deepika Menon I also believe the masses would corrupt these beauties. I wish everyone could enjoy these masterpieces the way I do but maybe it’s best left for only few.
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.
Well said/written. I concur with you. Your encouraging words represent the majority of us, of this am certain. Thank you for your optimism and kindness🌺💓🙏🎀💐
I always cry during the clarinet solo. I don't know what it is about it. There is something so Russian about it, and it is full of pain but beauty at the same time.
BTW, thankyou for you Russians (I assume you are one) for someone like Rach to compose such heavenly music. What is it with you people - Tchaikovsky, Rachmaninov, Rimsky-Korsakov etc the music is so tragic, moving.....cant describe it.....
it is the recapitulation of this solo by the string 9:15 that gets me every time. it feels like a lonely soul finally finds a companion that truly understands it and cares about it.
@@lawrencedecosta6473 I agreed until you got to Rimsky K! Hate his music, hate the ballet The Firebird. Hate Stravinsky, except the Adagio of his Piano Concerto which is sublime. Same with Mahler - hate his music except his Adagio of No. 5 (I think used in the Dirk Bogarde film Death in Venice). Hate Schoenberg….. All the same these composers I’ve listed - dissonance, not music.
This symphony gave me hope when I had none. It pointed to another place. I didn't know what it was, but I knew that it was a place that would give me what I hungered for. I wonder if we all hear the same thing and dream of the same world.
I knew that the symphony pointed to a place of love, something I had yearned for. But I had thought that it was a love of a mother, which I had never experienced. I am now convinced that the symphony had tapped into a greater and eternal love, the love of my Creator who cares for me daily and who has given me hope.
the west forbids this kind of music in its cities. if you don't have the patience to hear everything, listen to one of Rahmankhin's pearls, the second movement of the second symphony. here it is, without the first one which is extensive and closed. Groundhog 2: "If this is good, how come the West bans concerts of this music? groundhog brother: "yes yes. they ban but also use that school in Hollywood movies, they don't have anything good in music except jazz and blues" groundhog: people who are good, hear this, and understand." 
And God reached down and touched Sergei and said, "You will create the most beautiful orchestral movement in your Second Symphony." Indeed, Sergei did not disappoint! Absolute Heaven!
@Forever Forward Yes, I can. That comment reminds me of those people who thank God when the operation was sucessful instead of thanking the doctor. Did God also reach out to Mozart and made him compose Leck mich im Arsch?
How could anyone not feel SOMETHING incredibly deep and profound when listening to this masterpiece ... he must have been soulfully sad when he wrote this because IF you could HEAR heartbreak THIS is what it would sound like ... listen at 6:55 and hear his emotion ... pure genius ..
Целый мир это РИ.. Оттуда такая прекрасная музыка. Этого нельзя забывать.. А то музыкой восхищаемся , а также большевиками которые этот мир уничтожили..
Whoever is reading this , we don't know each other and probably never will , but I wish you all the best in life and all the happiness in the world! I will never stop loving classical music and this masterpiece. I love Rachmaninov. Probably the most beautiful symphony ever made .....from Fort Worth, Tx
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 🇯🇵 .
I played this piece when I was 14. It's been nearly a decade now and I can only say that it ages well. Emotions only hit harder and harder each time. This music resonates more as there are more life experience and circumstances to reflect on.
I first heard this beautiful work as a Beatle-mad teenager in 1967 at the Brighton Dome. André Previn was conducting the LSO. It moved me to tears then and still does.
Sylvia Schwarz Andre Brevin’s interpretation of this is the best, in my opinion. He varies tempo and dynamics in a completely intuitive and emotional way. God I’d love to have heard him conduct this. At the moment of my passing, may the Creator bathe me in this music and let it consume me entirely.
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..
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
I was just 17 years old when I found this masterpiece. Growing up as a classical and jazz enthusiast since childhood this piece brought me so much closure and help after I lost my partner who took his own life. This piece has always stuck with me since then.
I was about 15-16 when I discovered this piece and I'll be 18 soon, I listen to this almost everyday, there's just so much beautiful melody in this piece that I can listen to it over and over again without ever getting bored of it.
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!!
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.
As monumentally gorgeous as this is, that sudden modulation from 12:40 to 12:44 never fails to get me. It's so subtle and only happens once in these 15 minutes, but it tugs at my heartstrings every single time 🥲🥰
Exactly, there's something so threatening yet romantic about that part, it feels as if the world is ending and the only things left are just you and your lover
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...
+BenjaminGessel One of the Greatest pieces ....One of the Greatest Composers of all time ..I add a tribute to ALL the greatest composers from the dawn of time who gave us mere Mortals the glorious sounds of the classics that will forever remain eternal in the midst of all that is Humanity
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.
When I fell in love with someone for the first time in my life, I was listening to this movement by crying - because this was the only music which could describe my helplessness in the face of his purity
I don't know, but I agree completely with her sentiments. Oh, Rachmaninov, how could you have composed such beautiful, heart-stopping music? But, we all, as one, humbly thank you.
I am transfixed yet again. By now, after having listened to this timeless piece of perfection-on-earth, I should be capable of keeping a clear head and a sense of normality....but, the music takes away my disciplined brain and I am a slave once more to the absolute magic and beauty of this composer's uniqueness where composing music is concerned. 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.
La música de Rachmaninov es poesía hecha vida, proviene de los adentros y sentimientos mas profundos del alma. Rachmaninov mezcló el amor, la profundidad y el rigor. No era sencillamente un compositor serio y dedicado a su arte, fué una persona que amó mucho la vida.
Me tomó 47 años encontrarme con esta belleza... Qué melodía más hermosa taa-ra-ra-ra-ra-raaaaa taa-ra-ra-ra-ra-raaaaa... gracias a internet y a esa cosa maravillosa llamada Radiogarden logré escucharla por primera vez en la Rbb Kultur Radio de Berlín, una noche de viernes, lluviosa y algo triste .
It was this Adagio of his 2nd Symphony which played in my head while I stood in front his grave in Kensico Cemetery in Valhalla, N.Y. I thought to myself, Valhalla, place of the gods; how fitting.
What a shame that there are 17 people out there that haven't got the slightest clue of what beautiful music sounds like. I feel bad for them. They don't know what they are missing! Thank you Rachmaninoff for all of your beautiful music. If you get a chance you should listen to this entire Symphony. It really is beautiful.
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.
Que belleza oceánica de acordes. Mi alma realmente se extasía con ese enorme Adagio. Adagio de mi vida de mi amor. Adagio de la tristeza de la lealtad y el valor. Música que nunca volverá hacerse. Sublime me lleva a los valles más profundos de mi existencia. Gran Sergiev Rachmaninov.
Vous avez raison! Je m'accorde avec vous. Rachmaninoff a été magnifique musician. Ce Symphony est incroyable et biensûr le solo de la clarinette est magnifique!
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!!
Definitely one of the most beautiful Western Classical music pieces that I've ever listened to. Feels like an eternity but at the same feels like it finished so early!
É a mais linda peça q ouvi em minha vida ! Sublime “ masterpiece” !!!Minha alma chora e e sobe às alturas do espaço infinito Rachmaninoff é gênio e eterno em nossos corações com gratidão por nós dar o privilégio .

I wouldn't dare drive whilst this little piece of heaven on earth was playing......it relaxes me completely, thus sending my brain and body into a state of euphoria, resulting in my being unable to drive.......
Pat Larkin You're right. I was about to have an accident last year, when I returned to myself I suddenly heard the screeching tire sound of a big bus whose driver seemed to have broken the wheel to one side bobbing like a little boat in big waves to not crush my little car. Garsping in horror, I thanked God for saving me and the people on the bus. Since then I haven't listened to pieces like this while driving. It's dangerous.
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.
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.
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.

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. Thank you , the genius of Rachmaninoff.
Beautifully said!
Yes hard to belive he was Russian these days
Не будь царской России не было бы и Рахманинова и других музыкальных гениев России..
As Billy Grahm wrote: There will be peace in the world to the degree that the world receives the ministry of the Savior and Prince of Peace, Jesus Christ. ✝️
As with the world, so with individuals.
For some years after his death Rachmaninov was derided as being out of touch with the modern music world. Well time goes on and now we look upon that opinion with derision. One of the greatest melodists of all time, as long as we have civilization will we enjoy his unique genius.
well I agree tu but don´t forget Tchaikowsky he has beautiful tunes also my friend
This adagio is the greatest exposition and expansion of a theme I know of in any piece of music, anywhere.

I played this tonight and I have never cried during a performance, but before I could turn the page to the next movement I had to wipe my tears. Beautiful.
I bet that was a show to behold.
That gave me shivers.
Étirer une telle mélodie avec un tel talent c’est sublime
About 10 years ago, I played Shostakovich 5th symphony and I was told that I made half the orchestra cry when I played the oboe solo in the third mvmt. Out of beauty-not agony!
@@excalibur1812 This made me cry spontaneously... I play the Oboe myself (but never played Shostakovitch's 5th symphony).
That is such an extraodinary feeling, to really touch people with your own playing. Such a special moment, i bet you will never forget it

Was Rachmaninov desperately in love when he composed this? This comes from deep inside his soul.
He was homesick constantly. And the love for your home is a great love too :)
Ana Lord Really？
He was a tormented soul
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
@trihardous maximus As insulting as your attempt to spell "puny"?
The best music is able to touch one's heart. I wish more people could appreciate classical.
Schools are responsible for their priorities --- sports usually dominate over the creative .
They prefer noise. Sad truth
No, you must understand that vile and crooked people shall have music that reflects how profoundly meaningless they are. The masses can only corrupt such beauty. We all have the capacity to appreciate it, classical music belongs to everyone but first we bring ourselves closer to the essence of music and the essence of the human soul. It is all so beautiful, so charming, at least much more so than vulgar jokes and ‘roasts’. Cheers
Not only classical music touches my heart. There are so many beautiful songs out there.
Deepika Menon I also believe the masses would corrupt these beauties. I wish everyone could enjoy these masterpieces the way I do
but maybe it’s best left for only few.
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.
Yes, listening to this music gives my soul peace!
yes, we are all here for the same thing. I hope this contagion would soon come to pass
Well said/written. I concur with you. Your encouraging words represent the majority of us, of this am certain. Thank you for your optimism and kindness🌺💓🙏🎀💐
Blessings Pat8212, we are sure that it will be so, as for the music of Rachmaninov, it is true, it produces a lot of peace!
I'm not so sure about 'peace'...this is some of the most passionate music ever written!
RIP Eric Carmen.💔
Thank for being inspired by these beautiful peace of art!
Congratulations fellow classical traveller! You have reached the exquisitely heavenly part of TH-cam. Now, you can rest.
But Sergei Rachmaninov was a late Romantic period composer, rather than classical.
Thank you for that. Think I found it.
I always cry during the clarinet solo. I don't know what it is about it. There is something so Russian about it, and it is full of pain but beauty at the same time.
BTW, thankyou for you Russians (I assume you are one) for someone like Rach to compose such heavenly music. What is it with you people - Tchaikovsky, Rachmaninov, Rimsky-Korsakov etc the music is so tragic, moving.....cant describe it.....
it is the recapitulation of this solo by the string 9:15 that gets me every time. it feels like a lonely soul finally finds a companion that truly understands it and cares about it.
I sometimes burst into tears upon listening to the honesty, purity and beauty of the music at the opening. Beauty at it's finest.
@@lawrencedecosta6473 I agreed until you got to Rimsky K! Hate his music, hate the ballet The Firebird. Hate Stravinsky, except the Adagio of his Piano Concerto which is sublime. Same with Mahler - hate his music except his Adagio of No. 5 (I think used in the Dirk Bogarde film Death in Venice). Hate Schoenberg….. All the same these composers I’ve listed - dissonance, not music.
@Margeret come from real id karen
This symphony gave me hope when I had none. It pointed to another place. I didn't know what it was, but I knew that it was a place that would give me what I hungered for. I wonder if we all hear the same thing and dream of the same world.
For me, it's always the effort it takes to hold back the tears of joy and sadness, simultaneously.
So glad for you
I will not forget your comment, this music does point to another place.
I knew that the symphony pointed to a place of love, something I had yearned for. But I had thought that it was a love of a mother, which I had never experienced. I am now convinced that the symphony had tapped into a greater and eternal love, the love of my Creator who cares for me daily and who has given me hope.
Beautiful music reminds of my father, my best friend and and brilliant dad and a beautiful Welsh man until we meet again. R. I. P. 🏴

the west forbids this kind of music in its cities. if you don't have the patience to hear everything, listen to one of Rahmankhin's pearls, the second movement of the second symphony. here it is, without the first one which is extensive and closed. Groundhog 2: "If this is good, how come the West bans concerts of this music? groundhog brother: "yes yes. they ban but also use that school in Hollywood movies, they don't have anything good in music except jazz and blues" groundhog: people who are good, hear this, and understand."

And God reached down and touched Sergei and said, "You will create the most beautiful orchestral movement in your Second Symphony." Indeed, Sergei did not disappoint! Absolute Heaven!
Best comment!
Mahler begs to differ, but I really get you :)
Absolutely!!!!!!!!!!!!
God had nothing to do with this. Stop. This was a genius that made an amazing symphony. God did nothing.
@Forever Forward Yes, I can. That comment reminds me of those people who thank God when the operation was sucessful instead of thanking the doctor. Did God also reach out to Mozart and made him compose Leck mich im Arsch?

How could anyone not feel SOMETHING incredibly deep and profound when listening to this masterpiece ... he must have been soulfully sad when he wrote this because IF you could HEAR heartbreak THIS is what it would sound like ... listen at 6:55 and hear his emotion ... pure genius ..

Rachmaninoff's works challenge the admiration of all ages .

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 🇯🇵 .
I adore Rachmaninov, a master of beautiful melodies and gorgeous orchestration. This is my favourite movement of all his symphonies. Just beautiful 😊
I played this piece when I was 14. It's been nearly a decade now and I can only say that it ages well. Emotions only hit harder and harder each time. This music resonates more as there are more life experience and circumstances to reflect on.
Check out "Rachmaninoff "V" Concerto".....with PIANO ingeniously ADDED. Merry Xmas from Mexico!
The adagio must be one of the most beautiful movements in any symphony It is the only piece of music to bring a lump in my throat

I so agree.
I hear God in here
It’s really hard to describe what Rachmaninoff’s music does to your mind and soul.
Always been my favorite composer and will always be.
Do you like Chopin?
I also am absolutely addicted to Rachmnaninoff. Grateful for such a genius.
I first heard this beautiful work as a Beatle-mad teenager in 1967 at the Brighton Dome. André Previn was conducting the LSO. It moved me to tears then and still does.
Sylvia Schwarz
Yes this magnificent music never fails to uplift one's spirits. Christian
André Previn - the most thrilling interpretation od this Symphony!
Sylvia Schwarz Andre Brevin’s interpretation of this is the best, in my opinion. He varies tempo and dynamics in a completely intuitive and emotional way. God I’d love to have heard him conduct this. At the moment of my passing, may the Creator bathe me in this music and let it consume me entirely.
Sylvia Schwarz Do live to a great age ！From Japan
You're one lucky gal.. LSO, Previn and Rochmonanav. It doesn't get a whole lot better!
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..
Два бога , перед которыми преклоняюсь. Это природа и музыка. Ими можно восхищаться, любить , восторгаться, удивляться их величию.
Beautiful words!
I think you cannot overcome this level of sublime. You cannot go beyond this, as this already is beyond.
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
I raise you Richard Wagner's Parsifal.
@@castelleon on the same level. solid comparison.
I was just 17 years old when I found this masterpiece. Growing up as a classical and jazz enthusiast since childhood this piece brought me so much closure and help after I lost my partner who took his own life. This piece has always stuck with me since then.
❤
I was about 15-16 when I discovered this piece and I'll be 18 soon, I listen to this almost everyday, there's just so much beautiful melody in this piece that I can listen to it over and over again without ever getting bored of it.
Sorry for you loss 😢
I've always loved Rachmaninov's music - so moving and human. What a great composer!
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.
Hartman Thehornplayer I totally agree! I am in 2nd Violins in orchestra, it's hard to tell what the overall sound is like cause of your own part :)
Hartman Thehornplayer has
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!!
What a wonderful thing, to be able to get up on stage and play this incredible symphony!
We’re all with you my friend. What music!
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.
Музыка, в которой любви хватает на весь мир. Какое Сердце!!!
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...
Life isn't the moment which we can breathe but the times which it takes us away the breath.
Wow...well said

@@SamuelHale-fk9ij Yeah and Tchaikovsky taught him for a while
As monumentally gorgeous as this is, that sudden modulation from 12:40 to 12:44 never fails to get me. It's so subtle and only happens once in these 15 minutes, but it tugs at my heartstrings every single time 🥲🥰
Exactly, there's something so threatening yet romantic about that part, it feels as if the world is ending and the only things left are just you and your lover
The most beautiful moment in music.

- that is vile anti-communist propaganda
You should have children brought up in a communal creche - no mothers and no love necessary
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.
that's so nice! Rach 2 is also my favourite
It's 1 of my all time favourite pieces as well. Bless your mother for introducing you to some of the most wonderful music that has ever been written.☺
Lovely memory. Makes me feel so calm when I Iisten to this piece of music...
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.
When I fell in love with someone for the first time in my life, I was listening to this movement by crying - because this was the only music which could describe my helplessness in the face of his purity
Спасибо. От всего сердца.
I can't listen to this without crying.....
It's so beautiful
This piece is ineffable. My emotions are always available when I listen to it
the most beautiful piece of music ever written
whats caroline stroud doing here?
I don't know, but I agree completely with her sentiments.
Oh, Rachmaninov, how could you have composed such beautiful, heart-stopping music? But, we all, as one, humbly thank you.
Thanks for all of you making me feel less alone loving this kind music.
Só uma paixão é a origem dessa música
Transfixed, mesmerized, hypnotized, spellbound, captivated, entranced, enthralled, fascinated, absorbed, paralyzed come into one......
Devastating ....too - God Bless those who can hear & feel
I am transfixed yet again. By now, after having listened to this timeless piece of perfection-on-earth, I should be capable of keeping a clear head and a sense of normality....but, the music takes away my disciplined brain and I am a slave once more to the absolute magic and beauty of this composer's uniqueness where composing music is concerned. 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.
there must be GOD who gifted Sergei
I'm learning english, thanks for the masterclass
Yes but did you like it? (Sarcasm)
When an artists experiences sadness, desperation, yearning, passion and even depression, it is all reflected in his music as in case of Rachmaninov.
Эта музыка - словно осень. Чуть грустная, успокаивающая, радостная неизбежность
La música de Rachmaninov es poesía hecha vida, proviene de los adentros y sentimientos mas profundos del alma. Rachmaninov mezcló el amor, la profundidad y el rigor. No era sencillamente un compositor serio y dedicado a su arte, fué una persona que amó mucho la vida.

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.

Pat Larkin You're right. I was about to have an accident last year, when I returned to myself I suddenly heard the screeching tire sound of a big bus whose driver seemed to have broken the wheel to one side bobbing like a little boat in big waves to not crush my little car. Garsping in horror, I thanked God for saving me and the people on the bus. Since then I haven't listened to pieces like this while driving. It's dangerous.
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.
