Deconstructionist Preludes for piano solo (2003)

Posted on July 31, 2012August 1, 2012 by Jay Batzner

The plural title is not a mistake. While this piece is one continuous work, four separate preludes are woven together. The first prelude is light and delicate, quiet and apologetic. The second prelude molds this delicate material into a more mechanical and persistent character. Prelude three is raucous, barbaric, and single-minded. The final prelude takes the preceding ideas, which seem very different on the exterior, and shows the internal similarities of all the materials.
