Prelude No. 2


Recommended Posts

Hi again @Cafebabe!

I think the Ab in meas. 18 should be a G# since the chord there is E major.  This prelude is a little virtuosic almost like Chopin's "Aeolian Harp" Etude where the right hand has to sometimes skip/jump wide distances to hit a melody note before returning lower to finish playing its harmonic pattern.  Although my complaint here is that there is very little here that qualifies as melody.  To me, it sounds like a series of chords but filled-out with some creative arpeggio's/figurations.  The beginning does start like a melody but then when you take the figurations through consecutive harmonic changes, the melody loses any semblance of interesting melodic contour to me.  That's my critique.  Thanks for sharing and keep composing!
