Rachmaninoff Prelude #5 in G Minor

In the capable hands of Yuja Wang.

I have the piano score for this and Rach's Prelude #2 in C Sharp Minor: Both are way above my skill level, but they are such impactful pieces of music; even if it takes months or even years, it will be worth it

Why do these artists seem to have fingers twice as long as mine?

Rachmaninoff had giant hands.
