Although it was entirely washed out by water from fire-hoses during the bombardment of Dresden in 1945, Neeman could read a note written on the manuscript: "This is the first I studied with Mr Weiss". While it is indeed a suitable work for a relative beginner, with quite short movements and few technical challenges, it is a fine work, well repaying any modern player's study. The Prelude presents an extended chord-sequence in idiomatic written-out arpeggio style in which the simple texture hides the care with which Weiss pays attention to part-writing; in these respects it reminds one of J.S. Bach, although with Weiss the spirit of improvisation is particularly evident." - Tim Crawford ******************************************************************************** Revised by Mauro
