Curiosity, I guess.

Oh, and as a disclaimer: I am making you choose one and only one solely because each one is radically different from the rest. So whichever one you vote for reflects the type of mood you prefer.

Have fun! And feel free to post whatever you wish about the Preludes.

I really like No1, always raises my spirits. This is probably my favorite of all.

But No16 is great, pretty wacky too. No4 is another personal favorite.

Oh, I forgot to tell which one was MY favorite.

No.12 in G# minor. It sounds like a tempest, and there are parts of it that sound exactly like wind wailing. It's awesome.
