Jan Lisiecki In his latest album, Jan Lisiecki explores the multifaceted world of the prelude, focusing particularly on Chopin's 24 Preludes, Op. 28.
For him, Chopin is a master of the short form who brought the prelude from obscurity into the spotlight. Alongside Chopin's works, the recording also features selected preludes by Bach, Rachmaninoff, Messiaen, and Górecki, each illustrating the genre's evolution over three centuries. Lisiecki aims to highlight the rich expressive possibilities of the seemingly unassuming prelude and invites the audience on a musical journey of discovery with his diverse program.
