Composer • Arranger
Opus 3, No. 15
Composer Notes
The influence of Erik Satie can be heard in this prelude as it brings to mind his famous “Gymnopedie.” The unusual meter of 7/8 gives the music a feeling of the vastness of time and space as it almost never seems to end, but continuously spins out from measure to measure. Judicious use of the pedal is necessary to maintain the crystal clarity of the music while still allowing the harmonies to transport the listener to a realm of unending serenity and calm.
