Description:
The 12 Preludios were written by Miguel Alcázar as the result of his first two trips to the Soviet Union. During the first trip; in November-December of 1983; he met Nikita Koshkin during the presentation of Alcázar's work at the Union of Composers in Moscow. A few days later; he promised to write something for him; as a way of commemorating the beginning of their friendship; if Alcázar would write also something for Koshkin. Both agreed upon this and when Alcázar went back to the Soviet Union; for the International Music Festival held in May of 1984; Koshkin gave him The Elves; a suite in five movements. The composition of the 12 Preludios was started during the Christmas vacation of 1984 and terminated by mid-January of 1985. Both works; The Elves and the 12 Preludios were premiered by Alcázar at the Ponce Hall of the Fine Arts Palace in Mexico City on March 15 of 1988.
