    I discovered this piece and this specific rendition in Spotify 8 months ago. I grew to love it. Today I played it in CZcams first time!!
    Seeing these two young kids performing adds one more dimension to this piece!! is Yuja crying at some point?

    This is astonishingly beautiful. This just transcends everything! Great performance! Rachmaninov completed it in 1901. Piano Concerto No. 2 was Op. 18 and this followed. You realize almost immediately that this is not a sonata for cello but for cello and piano as equal partners. It's so gorgeous and well-composed. He makes my day, every time I hear it.

    Bloody hell. The more I listen to this piece the more transcendent it becomes. Its happy moments make me cry and its sad moments make me smile. It has so much raw emotion... but none of it is overwrought and all of it is real. Rachmaninoff laid open his heart for us with this sonata, and so do Wang and Capuçon here (Sheku Kenneh-Mason's gorgeous live performance with his sister is the only rival to this sublime interpretation.)

    This performance makes me chuckle a little, since this really is a piano sonata with cello obligato. Ms. Wang is clearly carrying the water on the pace, since she must be playing 8 notes to every one of his at any given moment. If she weren't a such an unparalleled pianist, there's no way they'd be taking these tempos. That said, it's a terrific performance from both of them with a staggering amount of musicality and virtuosity to go around.

    Heard this piece for the first time yesterday after having been an adamant Rachmaninoff fanatic for 5 years. Completely shocked I hadn’t come across this before. Frankly no other composer has ever stirred such emotional depth within me I wish I could transfer what I feel while listening to this to others. Genius

    To me, the most beautiful music Rachmaninoff ever wrote. I have never had much affinity with his piano concertos that so powerfully dominate the repertoire, but this cello sonata is transcendent.. The andante is heart-wrenching and the final movement transports the listener through every emotions, until sorrow makes way for the triumph of exultation. Kind regards

    To me this is the most delicate and sensitive performance of Rachmaninoff's cello sonata
    ever performed. The face of the Pianist says it all at 20:33 to 20:48..Beautifully performed.
    The full range of human emotions come through in this performance....Loved every second of it...Bravo!!!!!!

    It is astonishing that youtube would place an ad in the middle of the second movement. I guess Google doesn't earn enough money. Such beautiful music, They have no respect for Rachmaninoff nor the consumers who have made them so much money.

      CZcams does that randomly - it doesn't decide where to place ads. You need to install an ad blocking app to prevent it from happening. It has nothing to do with having 'no respect for Rachmaninoff' ..... that's a pretty dumb remark in itself.

    This unsurprisingly takes more risks than their 2021 recording for DG, but I prefer it’s sweep and freedom from edits by the producer. There is no better pianist on earth at present other than Argerich at the other end of her unique career. Ms Wang’s ease is mind-boggling but it results in the ecstatic, not the superficial. M Capuçon is pretty good too!

      Good point! What was I thinking!? Sonatas don't have rich, thick chords!

      It's actually more common for Sonatas to have rich chords then even Concertos. (Concertos tend to be more melody driven) Interesting perspective though!

      Christian Vennemann Solo pieces was different with Chamber music pieces, pianist in the chamber almost like conductor and a follower.You cannot handle notes and phrases exactly as your personal wish , you must always pay attention to your partner and their part.Maybe some times in the performance they will do something quiet different with in rehearsal , you must notice and cooperate with them all the time and lead them.
