"Abstract:This paper traces the evolution of the genre of Prelude by examining selected compositions from representatie composers of each period, from Bach to Shostakovich. The study tries to establish the validity of an evolutional axis in the history of prelude as a genre, which it sees to be passing through the works of Bach, Chopin and Debussy, with each figure defining the genre on his own term and influencing the succeding generations of prelude composers. Considering the didactic dimension of prelude and its relation to the genre of Etude, a short discussion of the latter is also included when appropriate, as in the case of Chopin. A review of shorter works by Bach’s contemporaries are included in Appendix 1."
Composers discussed include: Bach, Cramer, Beethoven, Czerny, Chopin, Debussy, Scriabin, Shostakovich, Gershwin, Gorecki, Corelli, Pachelbel, etc. Works discussed included WTC I and II (Bach), Chopin's Op. 28 Preludes, etc.
