Charlotte de Rothschild (May 6, 1825 – July 20, 1899) was a French socialite, painter, and a member of the prominent Rothschild banking family of France.
 She was born in Paris, the daughter of Betty von Rothschild (1805–1868) and James Mayer de Rothschild (1792–1868).
 Charlotte de Rothschild was raised by very wealthy parents who were at the center of Parisian culture.
 They patronized a number of major figures in the arts community including Gioacchino Rossini, Frédéric Chopin, Honoré de Balzac, Eugène Delacroix, and Heinrich Heine.
 Chopin had become Charlotte's piano teacher in 1841, and as a tacit acknowledgment of the many years of support extended by Baron James and his wife Betty, dedicated to her (almost certainly as an 1843 wedding present) his celebrated Ballade No. 4 in F minor, Op. 52, and four years later another work, his Waltz in C-sharp minor, Op. 64, No. 2.
Prelude in C-sharp minor (Russian: Прелюдия ), Op.
 3, No. 2, is one of Sergei Rachmaninoff's most famous compositions.
 It is a ternary (ABA) prelude for piano in C-sharp minor, 62 bars long, and part of a set of five pieces entitled "Morceaux de fantaisie"; and also known as "The Bells of Moscow" since the introduction seems to reproduce the Kremlin's most solemn carillon chimes.
The Polonaise in C-sharp minor, Op. 26 No. 1 and the Polonaise in E-flat minor, Op. 26 No. 2 were composed by Frédéric Chopin in 1836.
 Both of them were dedicated to Josef Dessauer.
This Perfect World is a song by singer-songwriter Freedy Johnston from his 1994 album of the same name.
 It concerns a man who has evidently done something horrible confronting a person from his past.
 The music adds emotional sophistication to the lyrics by shifting between dark, gloomy verses in C-Sharp Minor and a bright, soothing chorus in E Major.
 The chorus adds an ironic quality to the song by singing about "this perfect world" between each depressing verse.
 The song has been well received by critics, who laud it as one of Johnston's best.
 "Best of all [the songs on the album] is the mournful, eerie title track, which describes the possibly mortal sins of one man's past and the hopelessness of his future with the economy and punch of a good short story."
Sergei Vasilievich Rachmaninoff (Russian: Серге́й Васи́льевич Рахма́нинов , "Sergey Vasilyevich Rakhmaninov"; ] ; 1 April [O.S. 20 March] 1873 28 March 1943) was a Russian virtuoso pianist, composer, and conductor of the late-Romantic period, some of whose works are among the most popular in the romantic repertoire.
Overture to Death is a detective novel by Ngaio Marsh; it is the eighth novel to feature Roderick Alleyn, and was first published in 1939.
 The plot concerns a murder during a village theatrical performance; Sergei Rachmaninoff's "Prelude in C-sharp minor" plays a prominent part in the story.
 So does a "Venetian Suite" by Ethelbert Nevin.
 The murder weapon is a pistol hidden in a piano.
The compositions of Sergei Rachmaninoff (1873–1943) cover a variety of musical forms and genres.
 Born in Russia, he studied at the Moscow Conservatory with Nikolai Zverev and Anton Arensky, and while there, composed some of his most famous works, including the first piano concerto (Op. 1) and the Prelude in C-sharp minor (Op. 3, No. 2).
 Although spread over three different opuses, he did go on to complete an important set of 24 preludes in all the major and minor keys.
 His Symphony No. 1 (Op. 13) was one of his first compositions as a "Free Artist" after graduation, and subsequently his first critical failure.
 The derision he received sent him into depression.
 After being sent through autosuggestive therapy, he composed his second piano concerto (Op. 18), which is still part of the major orchestra repertoire today.
 In 1909, he made his first tour of the United States, and composed Piano Concerto No. 3 (Op. 30), notable for its difficult cadenza.
 After this, due to migration from Russia in 1917 and his busy concert career, his output as a composer decreased, and during this period, he completed only six compositions.
 His last work, "Symphonic Dances" (Op. 45), was completed in 1940.
