| Prelude in C# Minor, Op31 (Chopin) Chopin's piano works, like those of Rachmaninov or Paderewski, elude to vivid orchestral colors, often more effectively than their orchestral works. This orchestration of Chopin's famous Scherzo, Op31 exploits all the rich texture and effect with which the original work was imbued, from the most grandiose tutti gestures to the most subtle shadings of tonal color. Scoring: 2+1.2(1).2+1.2+1 4.2.3.1 timpani and strings approx. 8 minutes |
