Classical Music: Part 3

“Music is enough for a lifetime,
but a lifetime is not enough for music.” 

– Sergei Rachmaninoff

 

If you’ve seen any of my other posts about classical music, which can be found here and here, then you’ll know how much I love it! On this post I’m sharing three amazing songs. One is solemn and sad, the other is a feel good song, and the last one is deep and dramatic. I hope you enjoy them.

 

1. Frédéric Chopin: Prelude in E-Minor (op.28 no. 4)

This song was played at Chopin’s own funeral, by his request. This sorrowful song will pierce your soul, but in a beautiful way haha.

2. J.S. Bach: Prelude Cello Suite No. 1 in G Major

This song was composed around 1717–23. It is uplifting and profound. This is on Master and Commander (a great and totally underrated film).


3. Rachmaninoff: Prelude in C Sharp Minor

Sergei was only 19 when he composed this extraordinary, passionate piece. Listen to this and you will be entranced.
