The idea with this piece was a representation of a subatomic or chemical process beginning and progressing, with electrons bouncing around and interacting. This mostly pizzicato piece is contrasted by legato violins used over the top of the spirited pizzicato material as contrast to the rest of the piece. A very effective, colorful and fresh piece. You may remember composer Mark Revell as the composer of music for the popular LG Signature commercial found in the YouTube link - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f-i0Ok43Ek8.
The idea with this piece was a representation of a subatomic or chemical process beginning and progressing, with electrons bouncing around and interacting. The legato violins section about two-thirds of the way through should be a marked contrast to the pizzicato popping of the rest of the piece and played sweetly with sensuous vibrato.
