Rachmaninoff - Prelude in B-Flat Major, Op. 23 No. 2 | Stanislav Stanchev

One of my favorite pieces - The Prelude in B-Flat Major, Op. 23 No. 2 by Sergei Rachmaninoff. Completed and premiered in 1903. The new piano is still adjusting, so it is not perfectly in tune, but I decided to upload it regardless. Hope you will like it and enjoy! :)

This virtuoso piece is rhythmically complex, contrasting thunderous left-hand ostinato against a jagged right-hand melodic line. As in Chopin's Revolutionary Etude, the performer must possess considerable left-hand endurance to maintain a consistent legato throughout the piece.

The structural form of the piece is ternary, roughly "ABA" with a coda.
