For etudes, yes. For less technical works, no.
This was in relation to Krystian Zimerman saying he had 4 fingerings for every piece and decided which he’d use depending on the acoustic environment.
I recall a rando interview where da Kat say he start wtih fingering above all else too. Something along the lines of its a foundation that needs to be set before you build on it.

Indeed. Nobody is going to reveal their actual secret:
Participating in a demonic orgy, selling deir soul to Da devil n getting sum tru success
My guess is Rach actually died during the 1918 flu and was replaced by an alien.
Note the slender and emaciated figure with long digits. Most curious of all the abundance of poorly fitting eye lids disguising curiously large eyes. A dead give away for a gray.
Hmmm good point.
A legit topic for research.
You’ll have to make it more specific to meet current academic standard
“Rachmaninoff: a gender-neutral alien? An in-depth transvestigation”
I don’t know if Rach specifically mention his gender much. Think default there non binary to be safe.
