New Piece

Ironically done out of order, I have selected the prelude to the Fugue to work on as my next piece. The name of it is in Russian, so we'll just call it the Prelude for now. It was also written by Shostakovich and has a different structure from the Fugue: instead of mainly four part harmonies the chords have five notes each, meaning I will have to add one more horn player to make it a quintet. The Prelude has a faster tempo than the Fugue and is also shorter in length (two pages instead of four).
