Work Overview

Prelude IV is reflective and somber in nature. The prelude comprises four lyrical phrases that sound four times. With each repetition, the chorale voicing increases in density. A bell-like D tolls above the chorale, quietly spelling Mr. Garner's words ("I can't breathe") in morse code.
