Georges Catoire, in Russian Georgy Katuar, (1861-1926) was a late romantic Russian composer. I hope you enjoy listening to this prelude. Link: http://www.pianostreet.com/smf/index.php/topic,32148.0.html

Hi Zac,
Thanks for the compliment. The preludes tend to be short by their nature. But he does have other genres of pieces for piano such as a few etudes, numerous morceaux, the beautiful Chants du crepuscule, and other miscellaneous works, many of which are considerably longer than the preludes. Also, you'll find that Catoire has a very individual idiom and sound. I just wish his music was easier to play! This afternoon I started another prelude. So I'm definitely having fun with it! Thanks for listening.
David
