Simil
arly to Bach's cycle The
Well-Tempered Clavier or
to Chopin's 24 Preludes,
and similarly to his own
collection published in
2019, the
Wolf-temperiertes
Klavier, Péter Wolf
penned 24 piano pieces
again. His Jazz Preludes
set examples for
improvisation and make
use of the entire
stylistic spectrum of
jazz, ranging from the
gospel (“Anthem,
No. 7â€) to blues
(“Windlass, No.
1â€), bebop
(“Crime, No.
11â€), Latin jazz
(“Tropical Night,
No. 6â€), and, of
course, the world of
ballads
(“Nostalgia, No.
4†and
“Question Without
Answer, No. 16â€).
The individual movements
are no mere style
exercises or piano
technique exercises but,
like Debussy's preludes,
they are expressive
character pieces: musical
images of a phenomenon,
an emotion, a behavior
pattern, a personal
experience reflected by
their titles.
