The words to this atmospheric piece are by Mark Nall. The music is still and evocative, static but ever shifting. The piece was given its first performance by students at University College of North Wales, Bangor, under the direction of the composer and in the presence of the poet.

If you are performing this, you'll probably need a score for the conductor if you use one, and another for the contralto. The other instrumentalists have their separate parts, as usual.
