I had no idea how sweet and scherzando the prelude could be. And played at a perfect pace where you can hear all the voices without struggling. I hear too many musicians trying to play this triplet of pieces too fast (it's not a frigging toccata! stop showing off), whereas for me Gugnin gets it spot on.
Yes I like to hear the music rather than see how fast someone can play it….the beauty of the cords…I like to slow it down to savor the beauty and elegance. Nothing better than Rach & Bach!!!!

I could not agree more: it suffices to close ones eyes, thus evading the showmanship (inherent also to this performance) so much abhorred by Rachmaninov, and lo, once of a sudden one sees comely ladies and handsome gentlemen in baroque costumes dancing gracefully and conveniently to Bach´s immortal music . . .
I went to a charity concert by Russian and Ukrainian musicians in Hiroshima today. Andrei is a leading Russian pianist. He was moved by the performance. Thank you! !
Constantly finding myself coming back to this piece throughout the years. There is no better recording on youtube than this. Peak performance and you should be extremely proud of yourself. Bravo!!!
I favor Gugin's prelude performance . The auditorium acoustics have the advantage. ua-cam.com/video/SnnXVKld8YI/v-deo.html No swaying each other on this one! Trifonov has a justifiable higher stature and is my favorite pianist.. @@thepianocornertpc
Wonderful performance and perfect tempo, and I love your sound. I've been "playing around" with this piece for a while now, and your performance has inspired me to get back to it and finish learning it.
P.S.: Admittedly, composers are rarely (if ever at all) the best interpreters of their own works and Rachmaninov´s piano adaptation of the Prelude, Gavotte & Gigue from Bach´s Violin Partita No. 3 is no exception (the only available recording of the composer engenders a rather hasty, almost awkward impression): therefore I am confident that the great SWR would have whole-heartedly approved of this delicate interpretation . . . Moreover, I could imagine each additional embellishment (there are only very few in this recording) as a fond and spontaneous hand-kiss from each gentleman to his lady dance-partner . . .
I've mastered SIMPLE pieces to the point that they're great fun and generate an inner joy to play,. When the mechanics and memory are no longer running interference, you can control can enjoy the ecstasy along with the athletic endeavor of playing . This guy visibly experiences this. Makes you want to practice so you can get high on music.
Once again... well I think if Moseiwitsch would interpret this it would in the same quality, phrasing and dynamics. I would love to hear you play on Horowitz his Steinway CD-75
I only know of the edition of MELODIYA (which is also the name of a russian music record label, both LP and CD) which I happened to find in a hidden music store near St. Lazare in Paris some 25 years ago ... However, considering the increasing popularity of this adaptation, I´m confident that nowadays, it should be available also from modern music score publishers, probably even as PDF-download: Google is your friend here!

I think I just found some gold! Every note is crystal clean and the phrasing is wonderful
on this day i've discovered and truly great pianist, musician and artist. yaaaay!!!
you are virtuoso, genius, great pianist. wooowww
Beautifully, imaginatively performed and so attractively recorded.
Love the sound of this pianist
oh my, what a perfect tempo for the prelude, and so hard to find too.
I went to a charity concert by Russian and Ukrainian musicians in Hiroshima today. Andrei is a leading Russian pianist. He was moved by the performance. Thank you! !
Just unbelievably good! Never heard of this guy, but now . . .
What a beautiful interprétation of the prelude, the voices are crystaline, all working together, delicately phrased, wonderful ! Thank you !
It is a masterpiece !!!
I so enjoy this piece played so well. I’m still working on it.
The gigue is so dance-like and lively!
Phenomenal, this is a deceivingly difficult work to pull off. Fantastic touch.

Trifonov.
Not for the prelude.@@thepianocornertpc

@@EarlLedden Of course.
I really like the serious, inquisitive, and hard-working performance

Лучший!!! Слушаю время от времени для гармонизации души. Спасибо, Андрей!
И я,в гигиенических целях!

Thank you and good luck with the piece!
@@GugaZavR I'll need it. I love Rachmaninoff (and Bach), but he makes one work hard - which is a good thing! :)
Мне показалась акустика очень удачной. В технике игры я мало что понимаю, но удовольствие получил. Мягкая какая-то манера, без сильного нажима.
Bravooooooo!!!
