Rachmaninoff - Suite for two pianos, no.1, op.5, III, Tears (Brigitte Engerer, Boris Berezovsky)
It’s been ages since I met Rachmaninoff, I used to think I had listened all of his works but still I sometimes think I never knew him. Every day, I discover his music again and again, I come across some of his compositions which I have never listened and which I am suprised not to have already discovered. Maybe Rachmaninoff takes his power from the fact that he never ceases to surprise, maybe this is the thing an artist should be able to do.
This piece is one of the most passionate works of him which is at the same time one of the reasons of my astonishment.
