Bir müzik eserini icra ederken o eseri oluşturan en küçük motifleri incelemek, eserin bütününü anlamak ve eserin zorluklarının üstesinden gelmek açısından önem taşımaktadır. Bu çalışmada eserin içindeki küçük motifler ve alıntılar incelenmiş ve söz konusu küçük birimlerin yorumlanmasıyla ilgili önerilerde bulunulmuştur.

Being the last of the series, the prelude in D flat Major op.32 no.13 is known to be a challenging work fort he performer, with its intense piano writing and complex musical structure. The prelude also contains various excerpts from previous preludes in chronological order. Analysing even the slightest motifs is crucial to the performance of a musical work, since this would provide a means to comprehend the composition in its entirety and overcome its many challanges for the performer. In this study, the small motifs and excerpts contained in the work have been analysed and suggestions made as to the interpretation of these units. In this way, it is aimed to provide a better understanding in the prelude in both musical and technical terms, and also to emphasize his ingenuity in processing these themes and musical motifs. His thematic approach which in contrast to most of his peers, has retained elements of the nineteenth century tradition, has been analysed in the light of this last prelude.
