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.

Chopin - The Essential Collection

Raindrop Prélude

In Don Nigro's satirical comedy Paganini (1995), the great violinist seeks vainly for his salvation, claiming that he unknowingly sold his soul to the Devil. "Variation upon variation," he cries at one point, "but which variation leads to salvation and which to damnation? Music is a question for which there is no answer." Paganini is portrayed as having killed three of his lovers and sinking repeatedly into poverty, prison, and drink. Each time he is "rescued" by the Devil who appears in different guises, returning Paganini's violin so he can continue playing. In the end, Paganini's salvation—administered by a god-like Clockmaker—turns out to be imprisonment in a large bottle where he plays his music for the amusement of the public through all eternity. "Do not pity him, my dear," the Clockmaker tells Antonia, one of Paganini's murdered wives. "He is alone with the answer for which there is no question. The saved and the damned are the same."

عازف كمان إيطالي، من أبرز عازفي الكمان في عالم الموسيقى ، بدأ تعلم العزف على المندولين وهو في الخامسة من عمره .. وفي عمر السابعة بدأ بالتأليف الموسيقي ..

من أشهر أعماله “La Streghe”  أي الراقصات الساحرات ، من شدة روعة هذه المعزوفة إتهمه البعض بأنه عقد اتفاقاً مع الشيطان بهدف ان يعلمه العزف ، فأداءه كان خارقاُ لدرجة ان هناك من زعموا انهم رأوا الشيطان بالفعل وهو يساعده أثناء العزف !

ولهذا السبب كان منبوذاً من قبل الكنيسة فحرمته الصلوات الاخيرة التي تقام على المريض قبل الموت بفترة وجيزة، وبعد موته رفضت دفنه في مقابر الكاثوليك في جنوة، حتى تم دفن رفاته في مقبرة في بارما عام 1876.
