It's wonderful of you to bring this bounty to our ears - and with the sheet music too! Just briefly I find myself thinking of these interpretations: is there occasionally a lack of an essential simplicity or even verve? But then I listen a little more; and I realise how very special Sokolov's perception, with its essential introspection and lack of show, truly is. So many of today's pianists (not least Yuja and Khatia) skid glibly over works like these like a brand of floor polish. Instead, you have brought us a treat which will promise food for thought for years to come.
Love it! Rachmaninov + Sokolov = Happiness!
This is so beautiful.

most romantic and emotional interpretation
So often we hear the transitions into and out of the middle section not played convincingly. But here it is wonderfully well done.
I liked this very much. Thank you.
Phantastisch ❤❤❤
Yes he sure is the goodest! Thanks for bringing this to us!
"Goodest" - not a word and so ugly!! "Best" is what you meant.
Shouldn’t it correctly be most goodest?
Absolutely! The most goodest pianist in the world! ❤️
Wonderful music 😀, horrible these masks 😬!
lol why? pretty sure this was performed earlier when the pandemic was in full swing
