The Quiet Revolutionary of the Piano – Fauré’s Complete Piano Works Now on Piano Street

In the pantheon of French music, Gabriel Fauré (1845–1924) often seems a paradox—an innovator cloaked in restraint, a Romantic by birth who shaped the contours of modern French music with quiet insistence.

Need help in recognizing a piece
on: December 17, 2014, 10:17:15 AM
Hello!
I heard a piano piece and I immediately fell in love with it. I tried to recognize it using Shazam, but without success.
I managed to register a small part of it and I would like to have you guys listen to it, to help me find it. LINK

Please post anything that could help me moving in the right direction!
Thanks a lot :)

This stuff might be rather obvious, but it sounds romantic and it's in c sharp minor. Hope that helps a little!

It's the first movement "In the Cloister" of Borodin's Petite Suite.

Borodin's little suite is quite sweet. But the last item is such a boring uninspired dud (IMO) that
I've given up on the entire suite. For some strange reason omitting one item in a set is never an option for me.
