One nice set of the Rachmaninoff symphonies is the Slatkin/St. Louis set on Vox from the 80s. Nice performances. And Amphissa is correct, they can be quite difficult to perform. This often depends quite a bit on who is on the podium, and what they are doing to the pieces - often they see the name Rachmaninoff and think that gives them license to do whatever they hell they feel like, often very different from the composer's markings, and usually with bad results.....
