Programme Note

The players must blend their individual sounds to form one constantly evolving timbre. From the opening timbral cell, longer and longer chains of sound are unravelled, always passing through the initial material then spinning off in a new direction. After the longest central chain of sound the chains get progressively shorter, until we return to the original cell. This growth and decay of material give the piece its overall arch shape.

Difficulty:
