Title: Do not buy this.
Review: This is an awful, awful recording of Rachmaninof's wonderful work. It is overblown, way way too staccatto in many spots, disjointed, etc. etc. etc. Buy the movie, that's fine: it was a great movie. But do not buy any of his recordings. They are horribly played and are exploitative. I suggest, for the concerto, the Andre Watts recording. As a musician, I am offended that people will make a pity-purchase and get this, while there are many, many young artists putting as much or more work into what they are doing as Mr. Helfgott and being completely ignored by the public. Don't let the media brainwash you!
