What is a "prelude"?
A prelude is a short piece of music that serves as an introduction to a larger composition or performance. It sets the mood and prepares the listener for the main work, offering a preview or establishing a thematic or emotional context. Preludes are commonly used at the beginning of musical works, such as operas or suites, and can also stand alone as independent pieces in genres like classical music and jazz.
