Prélude g minor op. 23 no. 5-As indestructible as Rachmaninoff?s C-sharp-minor Prélude (HN 1211) may be it is not his only Prélude to have begun a ?solo career? of its own: with its rousing rhythms and rhapsodic middle section the famous piecein G minor certainly takes its place among them. Pianists who aren?t yet ready to tackle the complete cycle of 24 Préludes (available as HN 1200) can still enjoy Rachmaninoff ?at his best? with this work.Inconjunction with Moscow?s Glinka Archives we were able to consult the autograph sources for our Urtext edition of the Préludes which means that this single edition thus also benefits from the Urtext?s excellent editorial andgraphic quality. As with all of our Rachmaninoff editions the fingerings were once again provided by Marc-André Hamelin.

These 24 preludes and 17 etudes-tableaux include what are possibly Rachmaninoff's finest compositions for solo Piano. Reproduced from authoritative Russian editions Serge Rachmaninoff: Complete Preludes And Etudes-Tableaux includes the popular C-sharp minor prelude Op. 3 No. 2; the G-minor prelude Op. 23 No. 5; and the B-minor prelude Op. 32 No. 10.

Alongside HN 1264 (the Etude in e flat minor op. 39 5) Henle are now offering the Etude In C Major in a single edition taken from their much-loved complete edition of the 17 Études-Tableaux. Rachmaninoff greatly valued this work often included it in his concert programmes and also recorded it. A longing melody unfolds over a simple accompaniment. This charming piece that alternates between major and minoris a good technical exercise for the crossing over of the hands but does not contain nearly as many difficulties as Rachmaninoff?s other etudes and is thus also manageable by advanced amateurs. They will be aided in theHenle Urtext edition by the helpful fingerings provided by the virtuoso Marc-André Hamelin.

From an earlier Belwin Mills edition this is Volume 2 of a series of the piano works of the great Russian-American composer. These compositions were written as 'picture pieces' though Rachmaninoff did not reveal what each piece was to suggest preferring to leave that discovery to the pianist. This book contains the complete Opus 33 and Opus 39 works
