Abstract

These Nine Préludes were written between 2015 and 2016. They began as individual character pieces, but as composition progressed cyclic elements began to emerge. Chopin’s 24 Préludes Op. 28 are perhaps my favourite single piece of music by any composer, and his cycle has influenced my own in two principal ways. Firstly, like Chopin’s, mine comprise movements of extremes of length – from the very slight to the quite extended. Second, there is a certain openness to the form. Like Chopin’s, my Préludes may be played as a complete cycle, in which case the order should be as presented; as small pairs or groups, in which case the order is free; or as individual pieces.
