About "Variations on a Theme of Chopin, Op. 22 : Rachmaninoff: Variations on a Theme of Chopin, Op. 22: Tema. Largo" by Daniil Trifonov

Rachmaninoff's theme, borrowed from Chopin, is a winter dusk. Trifonov's Largo is a slow exhale in cold air, the melody a memory of warmth—tender, distant, and shadowed by the variations to come.
