Twelve Astrological Preludes were written over a period of roughly two years and several were broadcast on BBC Radio 2's Friday Night is Music Night as well as in other concerts. Aquarius was written in 1994 as a filler to apopular BBC solo piano series of the time called At the Piano. It was named Aquarius for programming purposes and as Elms left the studio the producer called after him 'Only eleven to go' and so Twelve Astrological Preludes cameinto being.The preludes, which run in the usual cycle, are based upon two melodic strands and there is one piece in each of the twelve major keys. The character and style of each prelude alludes to certaincharactertraits of its particular birth sign and each piece bears the initials of a friend born under that particular sign. Each prelude is prefaced by a printed description of some of the general characteristics deemed to beassociated with that sign. These are, of course, generalisations! Some preludes show a little deference to some of my favourite 'masters'.Elms has recorded Twelve Astrological Preludes for the Herald label and they areavailable on the CD Moody Moves together with other pieces of his chamber music including the piano sextet from which the CD takes its name.

Musical dice, a curio of musical history, was a favourite parlour game of the 18th century. The sequence of pre-composed bars is determined by the throw of the dice and the resulting piece sounds like a new composition.The CD-ROM 'Musical Dice' is a multimedia version of this historical pastime. Throw your own dice or leave it up to the computer - your PC will play the finished piece of music right away or print it out for you to play later on keyboard or piano. Or you can save the piece as a MIDI-file and e-mail it to all your friends as a musical greeting! Export your MIDI-files to a sequencer and create different instrumental parts and arrangements.
