Fantasy Piece is an early work of Rachmaninoff, part of a grouping of five short pieces called Morceau de Fantasie.
One of his most famous works, the Prelude in C-sharp minor is from this same group of music.
Opus 3, No. 3 is also sometimes referred to as the Melody in E major.
It's slow tempo allows the mood of the work to reach a giant climax.
Rachmaninoff's lush harmonies and gorgeous melody work very well with this arrangement by Ralph Sauer.
For moderately advanced performers this movement is about 4 3/4 minutes in length.
