About the work

Ian McMillan’s text was written specially for the piece.

First Performance: CoMA Summer School 2005

Technical notes

Instrumentation is free but must include at least three instruments able to play the three melody lines in the same register; beyond that any doubling is possible. One keyboard instrument should be used and its sounds should have a natural decay. The percussion part should be played by a woodblock or near equivalent.
