iirc the song is about a dream Rachmaninoff had where he saw his own body at an open casket funeral and has a meltdown or something like that. may be way off base with that tho, it’s been a while

[@henrysuryanaga5924]

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.

[@scientistwithanaxe2570]

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.

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.

Good job! ❤

[@brokl26]

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]

@@brokl26 as a metalhead i completely understand what he means and hes like so right 😭😭

[@brokl26]

@@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.

[@Pooter-it4yg]

Formidable Edith, bravo. Un projet merveilleux. For those who haven't noticed, she's used scordatura (string retuning) to get the resonant lowest string down to the original C#. I'm a pianist not a guitarist but I think it's a full detune of the whole instrument for overall resonant effect, including in the arpeggio execution. The lowered string tensions require very sensitive and adaptable technique.
