You seem to have a lot of pieces on your plate. I'm starting to doubt that you're actually working on them. Anyways, you should play what you want to play. Personally I hate playing preludes as stand alone pieces. I would rather play a bunch of them together, or use them to lead it up to some other piece.

you mean programming the piece  as they were initially composed for? *ghasp!  
you seem to be as much the anarchist as I.

(funny how no one ever really wants to ask about postludes or interludes, one would think use of the three in their appropriate spots would be logical, but as they say, common sense isn't.  :P  )

ie fun interludes


PS
 Postlude (at the of my reply of course)  8)


**do check out his others  :)

Oh, I can't play them. ;D I'm just trying to plan what to learn ;D You're right, if I had that many pieces, I'd be someone like a Hamelin or something, except way worse ;D Sorry for not being clear :'(

:) I like the Nocturne better, but I'm not a real big fan of either one. They're my least favorite nocturne and prelude... ;)
