Dmitri Borisovich Kabalevsky ： 24 Preludes No.24 Allegro feroce Op.38-24

As indicated by the marking “Allegro feroce,” this prelude is driven throughout by rapid motion and a fierce sense of momentum. Sharp accents, powerful chords, and urgent rhythmic activity create a tense atmosphere, keeping the music in constant motion within its compact span. Its appeal lies in the succession of intense gestures and the force that builds through changes of register and dynamics. In performance, it is important not to pursue speed alone, but to maintain a clear sense of the beat and its flow. Even in forte passages, the sound should not become coarse; carefully shaping the direction of the accents and listening to the movement of each voice helps balance sharpness with control.
