Prelude, Op. 28, No. 15 (Chopin) : ウィキペディア英語版
Prelude, Op. 28, No. 15 (Chopin)

The Prelude Op. 28, No. 15, by Frédéric Chopin, known as the "Raindrop" prelude, is one of the 24 Chopin preludes. Usually lasting between five and seven minutes, this is the longest of the preludes. The prelude is noted for its repeating A-flat, which appears throughout the piece and sounds like raindrops to many listeners.
==Composition==
Some, though not all, of ''Opus 28'' was written during Chopin and George Sand's stay at a monastery in Valldemossa, Majorca in 1838. In her ''Histoire de ma vie'', Sand related how one evening she and her son Maurice, returning from Palma in a terrible rainstorm, found a distraught Chopin who exclaimed, "Ah! I knew well that you were dead." While playing his piano he had a dream:
He saw himself drowned in a lake. Heavy drops of icy water fell in a regular rhythm on his breast, and when I made him listen to the sound of the drops of water indeed falling in rhythm on the roof, he denied having heard it. He was even angry that I should interpret this in terms of imitative sounds. He protested with all his might – and he was right to – against the childishness of such aural imitations. His genius was filled with the mysterious sounds of nature, but transformed into sublime equivalents in musical thought, and not through slavish imitation of the actual external sounds.〔Huneker (1927), p. 166〕

Sand did not say which prelude Chopin played for her on that occasion, but most music critics assume it to be no. 15, because of the repeating A flat, with its suggestion of the "gentle patter" of rain. Peter Dayan, however points out that Sand accepted Chopin's protests that the prelude was not an ''imitation'' of the sound of raindrops, but a ''translation'' of natures harmonies within Chopin's "génie".〔Dayan (2006), p. 6〕 Frederick Niecks says that the prelude "rises before one's mind the cloistered court of the monastery of Valdemosa, and a procession of monks chanting lugubrious prayers, and carrying in the dark hours of night their departed brother to his last resting-place.
