About "Rachmaninoff: Prélude in C sharp minor, Op. 3, No. 2" by David Helfgott
Rachmaninoff's C-sharp minor Prélude tolls like a funeral bell from a distant tower. Helfgott lets the opening chords ring with catastrophic weight, then the middle section scurries like rats in a crypt. A miniature epic of dread and release.
