The Prologues are short character pieces whose strong imagery should both enrich the oeuvre for piano classes with modern contributions and please professional musicians as appreciative concert repertoire. They explore different styles primarily of the 20th century that are rarely represented in standard opera for piano lessons. As the title suggests, the prologues are explanatory, introductory miniatures that playfully explore certain piano techniques, styles, harmonies, and tonal spaces and introduce them at a relatively easy technical level. They are aimed at performers of all ages. In texture, they are kept simple, mostly in two voices, consisting of melody with accompaniment, so that the focus can go all the more to shaping melodic flow and extended harmony, or to rhythm and meter. The pieces develop dexterity, familiarize with unusual fingerings, different weight distributions between the hands or within one hand; however, first and foremost, they focus on strengthening musicality: developing a fine feeling for sound, shaping individual melody lines, orientation in asymmetrical time signatures and in rubato. The music always comes first.
