Written specifically for my dear friends Matt Panayides, Ann-Estelle Médouze, and Jacqui Tomlet, this work allows for improvisational elements from both the electric guitar and the piano.

So, why not accept that from the outset, and see what happens along the way? In this case: here are some sounds for you to listen to.
