Prelude #107 by Allen Rickel

Prelude #107 is another waltz. The first theme consists of a twelve bar motif constructed of three four measure phrases, each with a descending melodic line coupled with contrary motion in the left hand.

The second theme is a bit slower and the key changes from G minor to C minor. Here, the melody feels elegant (to me, anyway) and it becomes increasingly intricate as it evolves over the course of 48 measures. I particularly like this idea and I hope you will, too.

I hope you find something in Prelude #107 that speaks to you. If you do, I'd be grateful if you'll let me know your thoughts. I'd love to hear from you!

Thank you, as always, for taking the time to listen. I appreciate you.

Best,
Allen
