Suite No.1 (or "Fantaisie-Tableaux" for two pianos), op. 5, is a composition for two pianos by Sergei Rachmaninoff. Composed in 1893, this suite illustrates four extracts of poems, written by Lermontov, Byron, Tyutchev and Komiakov [cite book | first=François-Rene | last=Tranchefort | title=Guide de la musique de piano et de clavecin | publisher=Fayard | year=1987] [cite book | first=Sergei | last = Rachmaninoff | title=Suite No.1 | publisher=A.
