Some words about the piece:

The idea of the piece is coming when I imagined the orchestra playing the piece’ and my daemon was something very airy, light, transparent.
This is how I initially created the title of the work, I kept “listening” to it and started writing it.
The strings almost always play “overtones” that give a sense of transparency.
Woodwinds play the “main theme” from which a piece on a side flute opens and then the “theme” moves to other wind instruments. Over time towards the end of the piece the wind instruments also begin to play overtones like strings. The percussion in the piece connects the wind instrument to the strings, at the end of the piece “all the materials” described fly to fill.
