Praeludium (Waterhouse)

 * ... that Praeludium, a 1992 "dramatic concert piece" for piano by Graham Waterhouse (pictured) served as the prelude for a composer Portrait CD in 2001, and for a portrait concert at the Gasteig in 2012? Source: several
 * Reviewed: University of Reading War Memorial
 * Comment: best on the composer's birthday, 2 November - the description of the piece is flowery, but that's only my translation, so I'm reluctant to use it for a hook: "a dramatic concert piece with gushing figurations, lyrical insertions, polyphonic elements, harmonic refinement and a purposefully intensified enormous conclusion"

 * Foreign language hook refs AGF and cited inline. I would like to suggest that a few words be added to make this clearer to non-music aficionados:

 * Fine. The last time I said that an image appeared already the reply was that it didn't matter ;) --Gerda Arendt (talk) 20:36, 27 October 2018 (UTC)
