Op.3
The famous C-sharp prelude was composed by Rachmaninov in 1892 when he was only 19 years old. Rachmaninov once said that the sound of it reminds him of the church bells ringing in his early age. When Rachmaninov in the U.S years became more of a pianist than a composer he was almost forced to play this at any recital and he said that he eventually and unfortunately played it without thinking after some years. Still, it is considered one of his masterpieces.
