Prelude and Fugue No. 2
Background
"The tempo marking of Andante con moto, the dynamic level of mezzo piano, and the 6/8 meter combine to create a pastoral mood, a marked contrast to the first prelude of the collection. The composition is in ABA song form, with coda.....This is the most sensitive and delicate prelude of the three and shows more innovation on the part of the composer in style and harmony than do its companions."[1]
