Jaan Rääts: 24 Estonian Preludes Op. 80 (1988-89)
Estonian Prelude No. 1 in C major
Lorenzo Meo, piano

Inspiration for the 24 Estonian Preludes Op.80 for piano stems from a number of ancient runic themes, the essential heritage of ancient music tradition in Estonia. They provide a substantial overview of Jaan Rääts's musical universe: as in Marginalia for two pianos - written seven years earlier - the composer wrote a piece for each key, often agitated by expressive dissonance and repeated rhythmic ostinatos.
