This set of three preludes by Sergei Rachmaninoff from Opus 32 was the very first transcription project of Bluvenduo.
From the artists:
We were, and still are, captivated by the vivid emotions that Rachmaninoff continually evokes, and we wanted to experience his music on our own guitars. For us, Prelude No. 5 conveys a sense of suspended, ethereal, and nostalgic calm; No. 10 illustrates a profound, interior, and conflicted dance between dark and light; and No. 12 sings of the thrill of freedom, yet not naively so, as though this prelude is also familiar with the depths explored in No. 10. On a more practical note, our own fingerings are included, and we have preserved the dynamic markings and articulations from the piano score as faithfully as possible.
