Program Note

Prelude 2000 (for Lennie and Lou) was composed after the composer gave a series of lectures on Bach’s WTC, and attempts to replicate Bach’s syntactic density in a contemporary dialect. It was composed to celebrate the 50th wedding anniversary of Lennie and Lou Newman, IU School of Music’s most prominent citizens (although other Lennie’s and Lou’s might come to mind).
