    Superb performance. As other comments said "very surprised to hear this Rachmaninoff piece played so perfectly on the guitar".
    The molody in the bass was well executed and the resonance is sustained long. Superb control of Melody and accompaniment. Suoerb technique in the 2nd movement, flawless technique while maintaining the legato of the melody and changes in chord.
    Some surprises in using semi rasquados in some chords, add different character to the performance.
    Overall, just one word Bravo Superb.

      I'm a guitarist who plays a little piano and I've been trying to play this piece (my favorite for the piano since I was a child) for decades. I never thought to translate it to the guitar - it seems much easier to play there rather than struggling with those voicings that are quite close together yet cover a wide range of keys on the piano, not to mention reading the double sharps from the sheet music.

    I love the way you play. So graceful. And I’m grateful for both you and CZcams to bring artists like you to the rest of us. Where would we be without you, the artist, and CZcams, the medium that connects us? What a wonderful time to be alive. Thank you.

    Edith, quelle merveille ! Dans l’arrangement ainsi que dans l’interprétation (à tous égards), tu réussis à retransmettre en toute fidélité cette expérience fortement métaphysique de Rachmaninoff, dont le manque de paroles n’est pourtant pas un manque de clarté, de précision et d’expression. Tu as compris/subie et repris ce message en profitant au même temps de ta superbe maîtrise technique de la guitare. Puis en t’écoutant, on oublie totalement qu’il y aurait eu besoin d’une octave de plus de chaque côté, et plus de notes dans tant d’accords, bref, tout ce qu’il aurait dû mener à abandonner d’emblée l’intention d’un tel arrangement ! Car le message resonne et s’amplifie grâce aux vibratos dont le piano n’est pas capable et à une dynamique, du pianissimo à guitarrissimo, où les contrastes grave-aigu restent toujours équilibrés entre la vie et le vide, la présence et l’absence, la vitesse et la pause, l’arpège et le silence. On dirait : un pendule mélancolique mais vivant et fluctuant entre l´être et le néant. Tout cela sur le fil d’un tempo parfaitement suivi dans toutes ses contractions souvent subtiles, ainsi que dans ses allongements, ses accélérations et ses relaxes : voici la première clé de ton incroyable réappropriation de ce chef-d’œuvre, je crois. En fin, il s’agit bien des pas et des vibrations éloquentes d’une funambule extraordinaire ! Un énorme merci de ton nouveau fan argentin !

    If people are unfamiliar with this piece I would HIGHLY recommend searching up what thinking lead to Rachmaninoff to write this, and then re-listen to this arrangment. Out of all the versions and arrangments of this piece this one does the best job I've ever heard of, really capturing the emotions behind the piece and reflecting them in such a strong, nuanced manner. Good job! ❤

      A very close friend of mine, been a musician for forty years, absolutely hates classical music. But he has a stack of albums of various Rachmaninov symphonies.
      My friend is a heavy metal/hard rock guitarist and vocalist and he always says if classical music had a rock, fringe, composer, it’s Rachmaninov. I’m not sure what he means by that, but then again I find classical music interesting but cannot be confused with a connoisseur.
      This however was fantastic.
      But I’m an idiot.

      @@snowy686 My music complexity pretty much stops at “what I like” and “what I don’t like”.
      I actually enjoy Rachmaninov because through by friend, I’ve had more access to it, since the early 80s. So, I don’t get the connection he makes to metal.
      I’m a huge fan of rock that’s very much on the fringe, because that’s where I am. I’m by no means status quo. Tony, my friend and I connected over similar upbringing and similar tastes in music, movies and literature.
      I have been wondering how he formed his view of Rachmaninov but, through all these years, I refused to have him break it down for me. I’m afraid of feeling like a bigger idiot than I already lay claim to.

You really maintained the piano like feel of the piece while also letting the character of classic guitar take center stage when you needed to.
