Chopin: Prélude in E Minor, Op. 28 No. 4 for Piano
As played by Martha Argerich | Arranged by Flavio Regis Cunha
There are melodies that feel like memories—fragile, fading, yet unforgettable.
Chopin’s Prélude in E Minor, Op. 28 No. 4 is one of those rare works: a piece that speaks in sighs and silence, where each note is a tear held gently between the fingers.
Inspired by the haunting interpretation of Martha Argerich, this piano solo arrangement captures both the depth and delicacy of her performance. Every phrase is a quiet revelation—sorrowful, contemplative, and heartbreakingly human.
Perfect for:
Church musicians, seeking reflective moments in worship
Theater and concert pianists, curating emotionally resonant programs
Piano students and teachers, studying the beauty of simplicity and expression
Originally called “suffocation” by Hans von Bülow, and believed to carry the poetic title "Quelles larmes au fond du cloître humide?" (“What tears are shed from the depths of the damp monastery?”), this piece has echoed through history. It was played at Chopin’s own funeral by Franz Liszt, and now it can echo through your own hands.
This easy-intermediate edition, printed in a spacious concert format (9 x 12 inches, 4 pages), gives pianists the space to breathe, to feel, and to let the final smorzando—dying away—linger in the air.
