Quote:The Piano Concerto No. 3 in D minor, Op. 30 by Sergei Rachmaninoff (colloquially known as the "Rach 3") is famous for its technical and musical demands on the performer. It has the reputation of being one of the most difficult concertos in the standard piano repertoire.
Following the form of a standard concerto, the piece is in three movements:
1. Allegro ma non tanto (D minor)
2. Intermezzo: Adagio (F sharp minor/D flat major)
3. Finale: Alla breve (D minor → D major)
The third movement follows the second without pause. A typical performance of the concerto lasts about forty minutes.
The solo pianist for this recording was Argerich.
