Rachmaninoff: 24 Preludes Piano SoloBased on the Prlude in c sharp minor Op. 3 No. 2 written in 1892 that quickly became world famous, Rachmaninoff composed a further two collections of Prludes in the years up to 1910. These were also published as a complete volume in 1911. Based on the corresponding models by Chopin, Scriabin and their great forerunner J. S. Bach they comprise a cycle of 24 Prludes in all major and minor keys, but unlike the other ones are not organized systematically
