What personality type is Sergei Rachmaninoff? Sergei Rachmaninoff is an INTJ personality type in MBTI, 4w5 - sx/sp - 451 in Enneagram, RLOEI in Big 5, ILI in Socionics.
His example illustrates how the 'inferior' function is not actually inferior. With the case of Se it becomes very intense and causes a person to have an immense focus on a specific portion of the external world. On top of that, his incredibly high standards for his own performance, for example, when he missed a dot and was upset after one of the concerts although the audience was elated, also how he dropped composing for a few years after the flop of the first symphony... I think this illustrates his obsessive INTJ's Fi quite well. Overall, his Ni manifests in his wide profile of musical specialisations. I also believe his Ni-Fi manifests in him being quite receptive to "internal" experiences. He never complained about the poor conditions he sometimes had to travel or live in. Once, when the ceiling collapsed in the room he was staying, he said "that's the life of an artist". He mostly observed things as they were, divergent Te-Se, and found subjective and sentimental meaning in various events. He also seemed to have a "one-at-a-time-thing" approach. Where he had alternating extensive periods of time working as a pianist, then, as a conductor, then, composer, etc, which I think also illustrates. His Ni-Se dynamic whereby an INTJ is interested in many things, but doesn't quite like to handle a whole lot of things at the same time as their energy needs to be focusedly directed. He also was deeply in love with his family, immediately donated money to help the USSR when the war started, which all shows his solid conviction, Fi.. And, of courses his music exudes a methodical, deep, heavy-warm feeling, which is kind of the INTJ vibe all around.
