Unmeasured Prelude in C minor - Louis Couperin

Musical work performed on the harpsichord by Juan Luis Madrigal.

Interpretation - Juan Luis Madrigal

Unmeasured Prelude in C minor - Louis Couperin

​

In this musical work the composer, contrary to the usual, does not specify in the score the relative durations of the notes, only their pitches.

​

For this reason, this type of piece is called unmeasured or non-measured prelude, since in works like this the composer grants the player a greater degree of creative freedom in its execution than the ordinary.

​

Composition:

    Louis Couperin

​

Interpretation:

    Juan Luis Madrigal, harpsichord
