Between 1914 and 1917, Sergei Rachmaninoff published two volumes of tudes-Tableaux - a term coined by the composer with which he succeeded in expressing the blend of technical studies with programmatic character pieces. As with the concert etudes of Chopin or Liszt, they represent a technical and interpretational touchstone for every pianist. -the publisher

Now even the often-challenging works of the last of Russia's Romantic composers are accessible to beginning pianists. Rachmaninoff's music can be daunting to those just starting out, but these simple arrangements focus on the composer's melodies and style.

Sergei Rachmaninoff embarked on his compositional career with five short piano pieces, first performed in 1892. The second piece is the famous Prlude in C sharp minor which was soon played throughout the world and was to become Rachmaninoff's most-performed encore. But the other pieces, quite different in character, continue to enjoy general popularity amongst pianists to this day. They are all "typical" Rachmaninoff and at the same time technically easy to master, even for amateurs. The edition...

The Rachmaninov Prlude is one of those classics you can "name in three notes." A global success shortly after he first performed it in 1892, the Prlude has become a "rite of passage" for advancing pianists. Its dynamic chordal passages, slow-building middle section, and clanging finale bring forth the full power of the instrument, solidifying the Prlude's place in the repertoire. In preparing the urtext edition, Reutter and Franke have consulted the autograph and first print, as well as Rachma...
Romantic. Rachmaninoff's Prlude in D major from his op. 23 collection is a wonderfully dreamy nocturne in the style of Chopin. The engaging immediacy of its poetic magic and the fact that it is only moderately difficult make this piece an ideal introduction to the late-Romantic, colourful sound world of Rachmaninoff's 24 Prludes. The Henle Urtext editions of Rachmaninoff's music are based on the autograph sources in the Glinka Archive in Moscow. The fingerings are by Marc-Andr Hamelin, who isb...
