Description :
Benjamin Schweitzer presents his first work for this combination. Willing to try out something new, he adds to the typical character of the wind instruments the sound of the piano. The work is made up of two movements, each movement of several parts. Complex interwoven passages are set against stringently composed sections.
The composer says of his piece: 'the combination of shortness and an ease of attitude with the complexity of a major chamber music work relates, in a certain way, the piece to the late works of Elliott Carter.'
