Sergei Rachmaninoff: Sonata No. 2 b-flat minor Op. 36 (1931) - Konrad Maria Engel (Yamaha CFX)

00:00 I. Allegro agitato
08:27 II. Lento
15:29 III. Allegro molto
Again, a perspective which might be a bit different. My approach was here, to emphasise more of the sonata's architecture rather than taking too much time for all details, trying to keep everything tighter together in a structural way, so that it's psychological depth can unfold especially in the 2nd movement, and 1st/3rd build almost a monothematic framework.
I'm still not sure, if that was the right way. But maybe the work and it's creator have had too much influence on my confidence and I should just 'step outside' with this version now.:)
Very likely another version will follow in a few years, possibly comparing the much earlier and more circumstantial 1913 edition then.
Many thanks again to Tessmar studios, Ole Bunke and Gerd Finkenstein!
