Prelude in C# Minor

Prelude in C# Minor

SKU: ATG10090A

Prelude in C-sharp minor, Op. 3 No. 2 is one of Sergei Rachmaninoff’s most famous piano compositions. Written in 1892, it was part of his Morceaux de fantaisie, Op. 3, and quickly became a signature piece for the composer.

The prelude is structured in ternary form (ABA):

  • Opening: A dramatic, tolling motif that resembles the bells of Moscow.

  • Middle section: A fast, agitated passage with chromatic triplets.

  • Final section: A powerful return to the opening theme, ending in a quiet coda.

Its dark, expressive character and technical demands make it a favorite among pianists and audiences alike.

accordions 1-5, bass accordion, timpani, cymbal.
