So the amateur orchestra I play with has been working on Rachmaninoff's Third Symphony since the summer, a period of time closely overlapping with my unfortunate Guardian obsession, and it came to seem to me that one would make a pretty good soundtrack for the other. Since I can't do vidding etc., also whoever heard of a 40-minute vid, I just made a very large number of timestamps as listed below for one of the nicer recordings on YouTube. The chronology is messy and it's very incomplete, but it was a fun exercise. If you are interested, give it a try.
