    9 Préludes by Gabriel Fauré

    Gabriel Fauré (1845-1924) composed these Preludes between 1909 and 1910 when his deafness completely closed his ears, in this period and until his death he could no longer hear a single note. In 1902 he started suffering hearing problems, being only able to hear high and low pitches very weakly and totally distorted. These Preludes are probably one of the first pieces he composed in silence, without a piano.
