SUMMARY:Preludes and Postludes: How the 17th & 18th Centuries Predict the Future
DESCRIPTION:Finishing 2024 where we started: Preludes\, preluding as improvisation and what it means to begin a cycle. Reflecting on music\, the end of a year and beginning of another as we head into 2025 and musically into the 20th century. \n\n\n\nPianist Ian Tomaz presents a series of lectures and concerts which uses J.S. Bach’s Well Tempered Clavier Book 1 to guide the general public towards a deeper understanding of classical music and trace its influence on later composers. Each cycle includes one concert\, which pairs 6 of the 24 Preludes and Fugues with works of composers influenced by Bach; and three lectures\, where specific musical characteristics of each Prelude and Fugue are connected to later works\, showing the audience how the principles exemplified by Bach pervade all musical genres and eras. This series is inspired by Nadia Boulanger\, whose work Ian has been studying in Paris since 2021\, and takes place across Fall 2024 and Spring 2025.
