Like the rest of the Preludes, these are notes to myself on various musical topics. VII uses a tune that has bugged me for a long time because I can't remember where a phrase in it comes from. VIII became, with quite a few changes, the piano part in the slow movement of the flute sonata I am finishing. IX is based on an exercise I used to do, both hands playing the same diminished chord but going in opposite directions. All those years ago, I remember thinking that it would be nice to do one hand at a time while the other played something a bit more tuneful. After all these years, I finally got around to doing something about the idea.
