Chromantic Preludes

Notes

These five Chromantic Preludes were written for pianist Nadia Shpachenko and her advanced piano students at Cal Poly Pomona and Claremont Graduate University in California. The composer describes them as a synthesis of styles from some of his favorite pianist composers: Chopin, Liszt, Scriabin, Ravel, Debussy and Satie. They are designed as studies in piano technique that can be instructional and fun to perform, as well as being popular for general performance purposes by a professional duo.
