    It is clear that there are people who pounce on pianist's wrong notes. I am not one of them. When the plaing is musically inspired as I think this is, I dont worry about the occasional wrong note. The great Annie Ficher played fistfuls. Cortot played hundreds and any real musician knows that his playing is sublime. Why I keep coming back to this performance is because of the richness of colour, the energy, the perfect phrasing - in short because of musicianship. Two great pianists who obviously love the piece and play it for all it's worth. Forget the wrong notes, you critics, get a life - a musical life!

    OMG! This is absolutely breathtaking and mesmerizing. I know that they missed the one or other note, but that is not the point about this performance. It was just spectacular. I am deeply impressed.

    Maestro Demidenko was my inspiration when I was 17 … he came to our town before Tchaikovsky Competition probably from Tashkent where they played one of the rounds.. with a concert in our music college in Leninabad, Tajikistan. It was probably 1981.
    Because of the influence of the Masters, I am where I am now. Thank you, Maestro!

    Met Demidenko some 17 years ago. He was rehearsing Brahms 2nd with Gunter Wand.

    Tremendous recording and playing! Have listened to this fave on both piano and orchestra for forever and can truly say this is the version I've been waiting for ( much respect to all the other great piano versions I've heard before this one). Wish I could have been there.

      I think there's some pitch bend coming from the tape to digital conversion - probably not so many wrong notes

    My God this must be difficult to play. Rachmaninoff is difficult enough. But there are so many changes of tempo it was be very tricky to coordinate.

    Wrong notes, lazy articulation, the metric changes in the 3rd movement are a mess. The slow tempo, the panic on their fixed-to-the-scores-faces and the general clumsiness of the performance suggest that these two gentlemen never bothered to actually prepare the piece. The audience may "bravo" all they want - it's a shame!

      Thanks for the article. It has nothing to do with anything. I warmly suggest you to open the score and compare the author's text to the performance.

      @@danielstratievsky2614 I've been coming back to this comment for almost a year now, and I've finally decided to reply to it lol. I don't know where you got the word troll from, or why you quoted it, because nobody said it.
      As for this rendition. Of course, it's not perfect, but it holds a lot of serious emotion, and is one of the better performances on youtube, my personal favorite being Martha Argerich. Dmitry is the only one with the "fixed-to-the-score" face, and that's his face essentially every time he plays this piece. I find only a few note flubs, with the exception of some very poorly handled sections from the third movement. As someone who has performed this piece more than once, I can declare that there are many times two-piano performances are prompt, and can not accommodate the pianists' "bother to prepare the piece". There are only a few spots where there is a slow tempo, and it seems agreed on artistically.
      As for your claim that his article has "nothing to do with anything", I urge you to read about Rachmaninoff's personal feelings of this piece, and that he performed this exact arrangement with Horowitz at a private home concert. You can imagine, being Horowitz, there were many more wrong notes and "interpretations" than there were in this performance; a performance which Rachmaninoff loved, from his favorite pianist to interpret his own music -- Horowitz. I think your comment holds value to the "accuracy" of the written notation, but lacks the understanding of the interpretation of this performance. I can imagine if you'd heard Horowitz and Rachmaninoff play this piece the way they did on the night they had, you'd be disappointed.
