These twenty-four preludes and fugues have become so closely associated with the
personality and playing style of their ‘official interpreter’
(Tatiana Nikolaeva) that history has ended up deciding that “that’s
the way to perform them” without looking any more deeply into the matter.

Yet this op.87 is brimming with fascinating answers for anyone who takes the
trouble to ask the right questions; and it is not the least merit of Alexander
Melnikov to have approached the work from first principles and come up with his
own, eminently musical solutions.
