    Rachmaninoff strikes again...

    A most compelling performance of Rachmaninoff's Piano Suite No.1 Op.5 3rd Mov't entitled*Tears* by two Moscow Conservatory Students:

    This piece is so elegiac and yet so eloquent - Man, what genius Rachmaninoff gifted to the world...May his memory be eternal.

    And another strike in two parts:

    A most elegant interpretation of the Master's music.

    *If a man wants God to hear his prayer quickly, then before he prays for anything else, even his own soul, when he stands and stretches out his hands towards God, he must pray with all his heart for his enemies. Through this action God will hear everything that he asks* -Abba Zeno-

    *Protagoras: "Truth is subjective. What is true for you, and what is true for me, is true for me. Your opinion is true by virtue of its being your opinion."

    *Socrates: "My opinion is: Truth is absolute, not opinion, and that you are in absolute error. Since this is my opinion, then according to your philosophy you must grant that it is true."

    Hi CD

    Thank you so much for sharing those. Some beautiful music and very well played.

    I agree about Rachmaninoff, surely a great talent he shared with the world.
