RACHMANINOV, S.: Variations on a Theme of Chopin / Piano Pieces (Biret)
Rachmaninov’s early piano compositions reveal amazing precocity, his Lento in D minor being composed when he was just thirteen years old. The Variations on a well-known Chopin Prélude, composed sixteen years later, demonstrates renewed inspiration after the composer’s block that Rachmaninov suffered with the failure of his Symphony No. 1.
