Review (PDF) Prelude In G Minor, Op. 23, No. 5 (Alfred Masterwork Edition)
This popular Rachmaninoff prelude, edited by Murray Baylor, is based on the first editions corrected by the composer and versions published in the Soviet Union since 1949. This is a vigorous composition with a wide dynamic range in march style except for the beautifully romantic and lyrical center section. There are performance suggestions included, and this edition is nicely spaced and very readable.

Such a rewarding piece! This edition is very easy to read, and the fingering and pedal are excellent. Arrived promptly, just in time for my competition :^)
Good piece to learn the style and technique of the famous pianist/composer.
