24 Preludes

A cycle of twenty-four pieces explores the prelude as an introduction that continually anticipates something which never ultimately arrives.

The cycle of twenty-four preludes was planned and written in the autumn of 2016. As a composer, I like the pre-classical interpretation of the prelude genre as an introduction to what constitutes the main essence: organ preludes before chanting, prelude to fugue, prelude to the suite or a sonata. It turns out that the whole cycle is 24 ways of introducing something, which ultimately does not happen.
