Rachmaninoff - Prelude G Maj Op 32 No 5 Piano

Sergei Rachmaninovs second book of Prludes, op. 32, was written in the summer of 1910 at his familys idyllic country house in Ivanovka. This sleepy, rural area inspired the composer to this wonderful, Impressionistic G-major Prlude. It is not very difficult, and is thus also suitable for advanced amateur pianists. Thanks to the cooperation of the Glinka Archive in Moscow, all the autograph sources were consulted for this Henle Urtext edition of the Prludes. As in all of our Rachmaninov editions, the fingerings are by Marc-Andr Hamelin.
