Program Note:

Completed in December 2004, this piece is a companion of sorts to my chamber work Angels’ Wings as it shares much of the same musical and personal inspirations as well as compositional motivations. The piece germinates through the slow evolution of a cluster and its temporal development throughout the work, with melodic fragments juxtaposed against that ‘sound mass’. The title reflects two aspects of the music, first the abstract qualities between conception and realization of a work and secondly, some of the Russian characteristics of the piece.
