"The piece is a cross between a concert work and a performance art piece, where the performers play their instruments and also speak, sing and move. There are possibilities for structured improvisation, staging, visual projection and creative lighting"--Page [6].
Inspired by the poems Round for three muses by David Wagoner and Heartbeat by Rainer Maria Rilke, and by the ancient Greek Muses.
