This was great! Really enjoyed Alexander Kobrinâs playing and detailed commentary with imagery/context/connections of the various pieces. Rachmaninoffâs music is truly magical. Just that one snippet of the G minor Etude Tableaux (op 33 no 8) in the context of âgloomy morningââŠwow. Thanks for this wonderful livestream. Hope we have a Rach challenge month sometime soon.
