Preludium in D Major 00-3626 upc 038081002002

In the polyphonic style of Pachelbel, this elegant duet features running eighth-note melodic phrasing, shared between the pianists, set against an ostinato bass line reminiscent of the Canon in D. Teachers will appreciate the value of this piece as a study in the D major scale and the learning of 8th note patterns which will include the need for good fingering and phrasing. Students will enjoy the easy paced tempo and beauty of the melodic and harmonic patterns, and will want to share this one in performance.
