This music is both unsettled and unsettling. It begins with short, seemingly disjoined piano sonorities. As the other instruments join in, the reverberations of the piano spawn “resonance threads” that gradually take on lives of their own. The compositional materials seem to entangle themselves in a net. Lurking in the wild, impulsive gestures of this music is “the astonishing expression of dishevelled savagery” (Gordon Kampe).
