About This Song
About "Variations on "La ci darem la mano", Op. 2 : Chopin: Variations on "La ci darem la mano", Op. 2: Var. 5. Adagio" by Daniil Trifonov
In the fifth variation of Chopin's Mozart variations, Trifonov finds a still pond beneath the ornamental surface. The Adagio breathes with operatic longing, a single aria suspended in amber, its beauty sharpened by the knowledge of variation's inevitable end.
