One of the harmonic techniques Chopin uses to make this feel really unstable and uneasy is his avoidance of the tonic. This prelude is in A minor; yet we seldom if ever get the relief of hearing an A minor chord sound. Instead, we start at an E minor chord and work our way down the scale in an off-putting chromatic pattern.

This is the most challenging prelude so far, due to the very fast, unrelenting left hand pattern. That one is all doom and gloom and despair; this one is sunny and warm and open. I find it interesting that the character of these preludes are so different, yet they have some major structural similarities; for example, they both feature a busy left hand with a sparse right hand.

But where that one is completely devoid of goodness, this one is more of a sad feeling, and is very musically beautiful. Notice the bass line of the chords slowly drop, little by little. To me, this one calls back to the first prelude with a delicate interlacing of many notes. You have the challenge of getting the unusual melody to sing out while keeping the inner harmonies soft. Is it light, is it dark? It ends up blending all of these shades together, simultaneous capturing none of them, and all of them.

This is another of the simpler preludes, and one of the most famous. Chopin requested that it be played during his funeral. I like that this prelude never hits a big forte or climactic moment, even with the crescendo and the huge chord in bar This is written in the style of a mazurka, and you can see this rhythmic pattern in the right hand repeating itself in that Polish dance style.

First of all, you have the dotted melody in the middle, surrounded by a whole ton of very rapid grace notes. The mood of this piece is very grand, and almost feels like a spiritual prophecy to me.

There are these really interesting left hand trills which add an unexpected ambience, and are one of my favorite parts of this piece. It moves at a march-like, not-too-fast pace — anything faster would shatter the grandeur of it all. By stanzie. There is a transcription error on measure The turn is written incorrectly.
