Kapustin's Twenty-Four Preludes op. 53 were written in 1988. Clearly influenced by Chopin in their key scheme and brevity, they present us with a great variety of jazz styles: blues (prelude 11), ballad (5 & 9), jazz waltz (18), swing (17 & 19), jazz funk (7 & 12) and even an allusion to Take Five (13). In many of them the composer states a theme and then "improvises" a new melody over the underlying chord structure. The whole set projects an ebullient spontaneity, and it is fast becoming one of Kapustin's most popular works.

Questions from customers about 24 Preludes op 53 by Nikolai Kapustin

Johann asks: Thank you for the response Sarah. I was wondering if there was a difficulty rating for each Prelude, like they have on the Henle books? I'm currently at DipABRSM/LRSM standard, and was wondering if any of the Prelude are of that level, or easier to play?

Johann asks: Whats the difficulty of each prelude?
Sarah Rodgers answered:The Preludes are mostly of Recital standard. There are some slower ones of a ballad nature. They will take some work.

Klarra asks: Hi may I know if fingering suggestions are incorporated in this edition?
Sarah Rodgers answered:Yes, there are helpful fingerings throughout the score.
