 | Rachmaninoff: Piano Concertos Nos. 2 & 3
Buy new: $10.99 / Used from: $5.89 Byron Janis -- My favourite recording of this concerto. Passion, technique, majesty, power... overall brilliant. (The piano is a half-step out of tune, but who cares?)
|
 | Rachmaninov: Piano Concertos 2 & 3 / Ashkenazy, Kondrashin
Buy new: $11.98 / Used from: $3.38 Vladimir Ashkenazy -- A classic recording. The young Ashkenazy is a great pianist, but his musical abilities are questionable
|
 | Rachmaninov: Piano Concertos Nos. 1 - 4
Buy new: $13.99 / Used from: $7.84 Vladimir Ashkenazy -- The above recording of Ashkenazy is better, but this recording features all four concertos.
|
 | Rachmaninov: Piano Concerti 1-4 / Rhapsody On Theme Of Paganini
Buy used from: $28.99 Earl Wild -- Mr. Wild uses some very strange cuts in the 3rd concerto... He is very passionate, but perhaps too passionate. (The other concertos recorded here - esp No. 2 - are excellent, by the way)
|
 | Horowitz Plays Rachmaninoff/Concerto for Piano in Dm; Sonata for Piano No2/Vladimir Horowitz, Pianist
Buy new: $8.98 / Used from: $3.97 Vladimir Horowitz -- For many years, Mr. Horowitz "owned" this concerto... until his student Byron Janis recorded it. Dare I say the piano is overly portrayed during the first movement?

Buy used from: $44.99 Vladimir Horowitz -- VHS performance. It is not the best performance, but it is amazing to see the 75-year old Horowitz playing this demanding work.
