Sergei Rachmaninov (1873 - 1943)
Rachmaninov is regarded as one of the greatest pianists of the twentieth century. He had legendary technical facilities and rhythmic drive, and his large hands were able to cover the interval of a thirteenth on the keyboard (a hand span of approximately twelve inches). His large handspan roughly corresponded with his height; Rachmaninov was 6 feet 6 inches (1.98m) tall according to sources. He also had the ability to play complex compositions upon first hearing.
Den killen kunde han! Ryssland kanske skulle vara värt att utforska. Verkar vara ett sjukt spännande land liksom.
