Rachmaninoff's "5th" Piano Concerto

I recently ran across Alexander Warenburg's re-arranging of Rachmaninoff's Symphony No. 2 into a Piano Concerto. Have any of you also heard it, and what are your opinions if you have?

I believe there's actually a thread about this from a while back ago....

That's interesting, I've searched and haven't found a thread like that....

I hope Warenberg didn't arrange or perform Rachmanninov's Second Symphony into a piano concerto in the EU -- where all of Rachmanninov's music is still protected. I am particularly interested in Rachmanninov's copyright status, since I have arranged his Cello/Piano Sonata into a cello concerto (in the U. S., where the Cello/Piano Sonata is now PD.)

That's a very great rendition, and superb playing of Valentina Lisitsa. I think that Warrenberg's arrangement of the Symphony is very well done, but there's too much going on in the left hand.
If Rachmaninoff authorized this in his lifetime, his would be more elaborate. But indeed this was a very well done excerpt.

Recently the Korean Pianist, Julius Kim, recorded Rachmaninoff's " 5th" Piano Concerto!
Here's what I found:
