About "Morceaux de fantaisie, Op. 3 : Rachmaninoff: Morceaux de fantaisie, Op. 3: No. 2, Prelude in C-Sharp Minor" by Anatol Ugorski

Rachmaninoff's C-sharp minor prelude begins like a warning bell tolled from a great height. The famous opening chords are monolithic, each one a stone dropped into still water, before the music dissolves into a restless, searching current. Ugorski balances doom-laden grandeur with intimate, almost whispered turbulence.
