5.0 out of 5 stars Absolutely amazing, 17 April 2000
At the time only 21 years of age , Evgeny Kissin set a new standard for modern piano playing. It is reputed that when Sergei Racmaninov himself heard Horowitz play this piece he was simply gasping with amazement......well. I darent dream what he would have done had he heard this rendition which , to my mind , is the most startling live performance ever and certainly the best recording of the piece. His technique is embarrassingly faultless throughout this concerto and if we knew didnt know better , we would not believe that this piece is considered (perhaps along with Prokofiev) to be the hardest piece written for piano. The final movement climax has the potential to bring tingles to the spine ( it is , indeed , worth buying for that reason alone ) and is met with the hugest cry (with applause as well) that I have ever heard after a live performance ( and , yes , I do go to the Proms quite often)

Finally the customary "Kissin" encores demonstrate the sheer and immense stamina which Kissin posesses....the vocalise is hypnotic.....

Enjoy

5.0 out of 5 stars - simply magnificent., 7 Oct 2009
By Michael Pye "Yozhik" (Cumbria, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This CD is one of my prized possessions. It is a quite extraordinary performance combining almost superhuman technical brilliance with profound emotional and interpretative depth. Not only does Kissin include several ossia (cadenzas) apparently never previously attempted, but Seiji Ozawa uses a copy of the score from the Boston Symphony Orchestra archives annotated by one of his forebears, who performed the piece with Rachmaninov himself. Add to this the performance in front of a live audience, and the result is truly electrifying. Buy this CD.
