Christmas Prelude is three minutes of vivid chamber music. Clear bucolic motif in colour of French horn and oboe with the background of string sixteenth notes is in major and minor simultaneously.
The colour of harp and piano that we can only occasionally glimpse through the mighty string sound calls for an immediate association with the instrumentation we know from the works of Bohuslav Martinů, incidentally Kaprálová's favorite. The same applies to the joyful spark of clear major harmony that sometimes springs out of lightly discordant structures.
