Chopin’s Twenty-four Preludes constitute one of the most remarkable groups of small pieces in the repertoire of the piano. The term “Prelude” is vague. 1 It demands no definite form, and is, therefore, perhaps the most suitable title which could have been phosen to describe this set- of pieces. No single name could adequately describe these Preludes, nor convey any impression of their amazingly diverse character. They are arranged in a definite sequence and may be considered in groups of two; the first of each group being in a major key, and the second in the relative minor. Each successive group is in the key a fifth higher- than its predecessor. 4.5: Selected recordings. 4.30: Close down. 6.0; Children’s song service. 7.0: Relay of evening service from St. David’s Presbyterian Churdli.

First movement, . .moderate; second movement, andante; thiyd movement, finale. This modern work bears all the characteristics of the composer. Its three movements are connected,. one leading into the .Other. The andante is reminiscent of Wagner and Brahms, .and the finale is a brilliant example, of the carnival spirit in music.. The inndvation of a cadenza connectiijg the second and third movements is interesting, inasmuch as in its construction it employs all the themes previously played. 9.40: Recordings: Theodor Chaliapin, bass, (a) “Le.Cor”; (b) “The Old Corporal”; (c) “The Legend of the Twelve Robbers.” 9.52 to 10.0: The Studio Orchestra, Ballet Suite, “La Belle au Bois Dormant.” 2YA Wellington. 9.0: Chimes.
