The title of Julian Anderson's first piece for guitar refers to a painting by Joan Miro in which the dominant element is a vivid blue. In Miro's work details such as guitar strings, the orange of a Catalan barretina and a smoking pipe are present and theses are reflected in the composers work. This piece is part of a triptych of works by Anderson relating to the colour blue, beginning with his violin concerto, In lieblicher Blaue, and ending with Van Gogh Blue.
