Marche
fatale is an incautiously
daring escapade that may
annoy the fans of my
compositions more than my
earlier works, many of
which have prevailed only
after scandals at their
world premieres. My
Marche fatale has,
though, little
stylistically to do with
my previous compositional
path; it presents itself
without restraint, if not
as a regression, then
still as a recourse to
those empty phrases to
which modern civilization
still clings in its daily
utility music, whereas
music in the 20th and
21st centuries has long
since advanced to new,
unfamiliar soundscapes
and expressive
possibilities. The key
term is banality. As
creators we despise it,
we try to avoid it -
though we are not safe
from the cheap banal even
within new aesthetic
achievements.Many
composers have
incidentally accepted the
banal. Mozart wrote Ein
musikalischer Spass [A
Musical Jape], a
deliberately amateurishly
miscarried sextet.
Beethoven's Bagatellen
op. 119 were rejected by
the publisher on the
grounds that few will
believe that this minor
work is by the famous
Beethoven. Mauricio Kagel
wrote, tongue in cheek,
so to speak, Marsche, um
den Sieg zu verfehlen
[Marches for being
Unvictorious], Ligeti
wrote Hungarian Rock; in
his Circus Polka
Stravinsky quoted and
distorted the famous, all
too popular Schubert
military march, composed
at the time for piano
duet. I myself do not
know, though, whether I
ought to rank my Marche
fatale alongside these
examples: I accept the
humor in daily life, the
more so as this daily
life for some of us is
not otherwise to be
borne. In music, I
mistrust it, considering
myself all the closer to
the profounder idea of
cheerfulness having
little to do with humor.
However: Isn't a march
with its compelling claim
to a collectively martial
or festive mood absurd, a
priori? Is it even music
at all? Can one march and
at the same time listen?
Eventually, I resolved to
take the absurd seriously
- perhaps bitterly
seriously - as a
debunking emblem of our
civilization that is
standing on the brink.
The way - seemingly
unstoppable - into the
black hole of all
debilitating demons: that
can become serene. My old
request of myself and my
music-creating
surroundings is to write
a non-music, whence the
familiar concept of music
is repeatedly re-defined
anew and differently, so
that derailed here -
perhaps? - in a
treacherous way, the
concert hall becomes the
place of mind-opening
adventures instead of a
refuge in illusory
security. How could that
happen? The rest is -
thinking.(Helmut

The
composer writes, 'Quite
some time ago I heard -
through a conversation in
a mobile phone - a
wonderful concert of
ringing church bells from
an European capital. I
found it very hard to
concentrate about the
conversation, because I
was so engrossed by the
chaotic world of bell
sound. The night after, I
dreamt that the sound of
those low singing bells
was rising up from a
piano in a huge empty
concert hall. That
experience became the
starting point for my
piano piece, 'The Shadows
of Silence'. But before
the piece gets to the
ringing bells it moves
through a landscape of
shadows - Shadows of the
silence before the bells
- Silence before the
storm - Shadows of
melodies which all the
time leaves traces even
in the short passages of
storm. After the passage
with the low ringing
bells the shadows of
silence returns melted in
to a lament, which are
sending two regards. One
to two small beautiful -
not very well known -
bars by Mozart, and one
to the sextet in my own
opera, 'Under the
Sky'.

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. More information is
