Chopin wrote them between 1835 and 1839, partly at Valldemossa, Mallorca, where he spent the winter of 1838–39 and where he had fled with George Sand and her children to escape the damp Paris weather. In Majorca, Chopin had a copy of Bach's The Well-Tempered Clavier, and as in each of Bach's two sets of preludes and fugues, his Op. 28 set comprises a complete cycle of the major and minor keys, albeit with a different ordering. The manuscript, which Chopin carefully prepared for publication, carries a dedication to the German pianist and composer Joseph Christoph Kessler. The French and English editions (Catelin, Wessel) were dedicated to the piano-maker and publisher Camille Pleyel, who had commissioned the work for 2,000 francs (equivalent to nearly $30,000 in present day). The German edition (Breitkopf & Härtel) was dedicated to Kessler, who ten years earlier had dedicated his own set of 24 Preludes, Op. 31, to Chopin. Whereas the term "prelude" had hitherto been used to describe an introductory piece, Chopin's pieces stand as self-contained units, each conveying a specific idea or emotion. He thus imparted new meaning to a genre title that at the time was often associated with improvisatory "preluding". In publishing the 24 preludes together as a single opus, comprising miniatures that could either be used to introduce other music or as self-standing works, Chopin challenged contemporary attitudes regarding the worth of small musical forms. Whereas Bach had arranged his collection of 48 preludes and fugues according to keys separated by rising semitones, Chopin's chosen key sequence is a circle of fifths, with each major key being followed by its relative minor, and so on (i.e. C major, A minor, G major, E minor, etc.). Since this sequence of related keys is much closer to common harmonic practice, it is thought that Chopin might have conceived the cycle as a single performance entity for continuous recital. An opposing view is that the set was never intended for continuous performance, and that the individual preludes were indeed conceived as possible introductions for other works. As with his other works, Chopin did not himself attach names or descriptions to any of the Op. 28 preludes, in contrast to many of Robert Schumann's and Franz Liszt's pieces. 0:00 - No. 1: C major (Agitato) 0:46 - No. 2: A minor (Lento) 2:37 - No. 3: G major (Vivace) 3:31 - No. 4: E minor (Largo) 5:28 - No. 5: D major (Molto allegro) 6:02 - No. 6: B minor (Lento assai) 7:57 - No. 7: A major (Andantino) 8:54 - No. 8: F-sharp minor (Molto agitato) 11:00 - No. 9: E major (Largo) 12:13 - No. 10: C-sharp minor (Molto allegro) 12:39 - No. 11: B major (Vivace) 13:14 - No. 12: G-sharp minor (Presto) 14:26 - No. 13: F-sharp major (Lento) 17:47 - No. 14: E-flat minor (Allegro) 18:20 - No. 15: D-flat major (Sostenuto) 23:31 - No. 16: B-flat minor (Presto con fuoco) 24:40 - No. 17: A-flat major (Allegretto) 27:41 - No. 18: F minor (Molto allegro) 28:45 - No. 19: E-flat major (Vivace) 30:15 - No. 20: C minor (Largo) 31:53 - No. 21: B-flat major (Cantabile) 33:45 - No. 22: G minor (Molto agitato) 34:31 - No. 23: F major (Moderato) 35:34 - No. 24: D minor (Allegro appassionato) Source: wikipedia.org (Check pinned comment for detailed info!)
