Lifelong access to the course materials



This course is your deep dive into one of the most powerful and beloved piano concertos ever written. Whether you're preparing to perform it or just want to understand it better, you'll get detailed guidance every step of the way.

I’ll also show you how to practice the trickiest sections in a smart, time-saving way - so you can master them faster without frustration. We’ll focus on optimizing your technique to feel solid and confident, while also aiming for that rich, expressive sound rooted in the Eastern European piano tradition - essential for playing Rachmaninoff convincingly.

We’ll go through fingering suggestions, interpretation ideas, and efficient techniques to help you play this massive piece with less struggle and more confidence. You’ll also get practical advice on how to rehearse and perform it with an orchestra - from cueing to dealing with tempo flexibility.

A fingered score is included to make your life easier, but of course, I’ll explain why and where you might want to adapt things to fit your own hands.

If you love Rachmaninoff and want to bring this concerto to life with both power and sensitivity - this course is for you!

About your instructor:


I'm a Ukrainian pianist currently living in Austria, and I've had the privilege of building a strong reputation in the world of classical music. Over the years, I've achieved success in several international competitions, solidifying my position as a well-known concert performer. However, my passion doesn't stop at performing; I'm also deeply committed to teaching the piano.

As a piano teacher, I go beyond simply focusing on style and musicality. My primary goal is to help students optimize their piano-playing techniques for efficiency. I've had the pleasure of working with students from all corners of the globe, assisting them in revamping their piano techniques, relieving tension, recovering from piano-related injuries, and developing effective learning strategies. I take a comprehensive approach to piano instruction, aiming to be a valuable resource for pianists looking to improve their skills, overcome challenges, and realize their full potential.

I wish you an exciting learning experience!

Sincerely,

Denis Zhdanov
