Remarks, other info
"The piece was inspired by John Cage´s A Room. Originally planned as a one-movement work, it was expanded to a three-movement work at the encouragement of Levente Márton Horváth. Each of the movements focuses on a specific theme. The first movement exploits the timbres of the instrument, the second uses mirror symmetry, and the third uses the heptatonia tertia scale." (Virág Anna Virág)
