Even so, Johannes Brahms still felt the need to rewrite his C-sharp minor piano quartet in C minor, which was published as Piano Quartet No. 3 in C minor, Op. 60. [citation needed] The last intermezzo from his Three Intermezzi for piano, Op. 117 is in C-sharp minor. Alkan composed the second movement (Adagio) for Concerto for Solo Piano in C ...

Minuet in the Classical period. A minuet (/ ˌ m ɪ nj u ˈ ɛ t /; also spelled menuet) is a social dance of French origin for two people, usually written in 3 4 time but always played as if in 6 8 (compound duple metre) to reflect the step pattern of the dance. The English word was adapted from the Italian minuetto and the French menuet.

Chopin's 24 Preludes, Op. 28, are a set of short pieces for the piano, one in each of the twenty-four keys, originally published in 1839. Chopin wrote them between 1835 and 1839, mostly in Paris, but partially at Valldemossa, Mallorca, where he spent the winter of 1838–39 and where he, George Sand, and her children went to escape the damp Paris weather.

The single fragmentary movement is in C-sharp minor and is in sonata form, breaking off at the end of the exposition. Schubert uses a three-key exposition, with a first subject group in the tonic and then a second subject group, first in E major (the relative major) and then G-sharp major (the dominant major). Unusually, the second subject ...
