Prelude #123 by Allen Rickel

Starting off as a lively dance in 5/4, Prelude #123 grows in intensity for nearly a full minute before the tempo slows and the key and time signature changes. The spritely frolic is replaced by a mournful lament in 6/8. After nearly a minute and a half, this theme concludes with some rather elegant 4-against-3 rhythms and the dance resumes with even greater fervor.

I hope that you find something you enjoy in Prelude #123 and that you'll let me know about it.

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

Best,
Allen
