Prelude No 17

 

One more prelude, No 17 in D minor. My progress towards the full 24 is slowing down, because now I'm no longer relearning older compositions but writing them from scratch. It's better if I don't pre-think what I want the composition to be like, but this time I did. I knew I wanted a feeling of the random sounds of nature but I was also thinking about the heavy angular polska rhythm (Swedish dance): there are a few quotations here. The result is rather unsettled.
