Sixteen years old and deeply entrenched in a love affair with Claude Debussy, I found within myself a strong desire to produce orchestral music.

I hadn't delved with any great intent into the medium since Kamia Apologia a couple of years earlier and what began as an off-the-cuff whole tone theme (hummed by myself and transcribed by Philip Rice), turned into this Impressionistically-tambred tone poem, of almost orchestral proportions.
