Sand did not say which prelude Chopin played for her on that occasion, but most music critics assume it to be no. His genius was filled with the mysterious sounds of nature, but transformed into sublime equivalents in musical thought, and not through slavish imitation of the actual external sounds. He protested with all his might – and he was right to – against the childishness of such aural imitations. He was even angry that I should interpret this in terms of imitative sounds. Heavy drops of icy water fell in a regular rhythm on his breast, and when I made him listen to the sound of the drops of water indeed falling in rhythm on the roof, he denied having heard it. In her Histoire de ma vie, or "Story of My Life", Sand related how one evening she and her son Maurice, returning from Palma in a terrible rainstorm, found a distraught Chopin who exclaimed, "Ah! I knew well that you were dead." While playing his piano he had a dream: Some, though not all, of Op. 28 was written during Chopin and George Sand's stay at a monastery in Valldemossa, Mallorca in 1838. The prelude is noted for its repeating A ♭, which appears throughout the piece and sounds like raindrops to many listeners.
