explanation written 12/09 I listened to Liszt's Prelude and Fugue on the motif B A C H and was inspired to do something similarly dissonant, angry, loud, pouding, and chromatic. I just mess around with the little melody in some pianistic ways. This is another one I finished senior year for a school project. I didn't want to associate any language images with the piece (since I didn't have any), so I gave it a numerical title. Currently the recording is a midi version from Sibeilus, which lacks all character. Eventually I will learn it up to snuff and record it better.
