24 Character Preludes

Dennis Alexander - Alfred Music Publishing

This collection of preludes in all major and minor keys contains a wealth of pedagogical challenges for the late-intermediate to early-advanced level student. Each prelude is designed to explore one or more pianistic problems, and serves as excellent preparatory repertoire for the more complex character pieces of the great masters of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. The sounds of Bach, Mendelssohn, Schumann, Rachmaninoff, Debussy, Ravel, Gershwin, Prokofieff and Copland are echoed in the pieces in this collection. Titles include: Bravissimo!; Castle in the Mist; Celestial Lullaby; Corps de Ballet; Dreamcatchers; Fleeting Spirits and more. ZigZag, a piece included in this collection, is composed in the meters of 5/8 and 4/8.
