Canadian star pianist Jan Lisiecki presents an album that puts the focus on the kaleidoscopic world of the prelude. Lisiecki himself refers how he is seeking 'to showcase the broad possibilities of the humble prelude' that takes 'the audience on a musical expedition'. Composers from multiple eras, whose works are featured, include Bach, Messiaen, Rachmaninoff, Górecki and of course Chopin, who is known for having reinvented the prelude with his iconic '24 Preludes, Op. 28'.
