E minor, and the repeating dominant tone

So, has your music arrived?  I sure hope so.  Because, this Prelude.

I had to play today’s Prelude twice.  Absolutely gorgeous, easy to play, so imaginative, with the repeating B underscoring the dominant tone, which changes to other pitches in a couple of measures when the piece had modulated, and a repeated G calling us back as a secondary dominant, back to the conclusion in E minor.

It’s also always nice to see “Lento” when sight-reading.  🙂
