Shostakovich 24 Preludes Op. 34.... Which one?
on: December 07, 2004, 02:31:04 AM
Dear all,

I am asked to choose 5 preludes out of this whole set of 24 from Shostakovich 24 Preludes Op. 34. I have given the whole set a few listens and the pianist is Tatiana Nikolaeva.

Which 5 are the most popular ones in this set? Or do you have any favourites and why? Or which 5 would be recommended. I be playing 2 of the 5 for my exams.

Thanks

I have never played these.  If I remember correctly their was one in Eb minor.  That was my favourite if I remember (it was slow and very dark)- I heard this in a concert about a year ago, not too familiar with this set, sorry.
