This piece is written for 2 mallets. It requires a performance method that I developed as a student at the Eastman School of Music, the Relaxed Concentration Technique. When applied to two mallet keyboard playing, the technique shifts the focus of attention onto the large muscle groups of the arm instead of the small muscle groups of the hands and fingers.
In the summer of 1987 I heard a chorus of birds singing in Paris outside the window of the apartment at almost 5 am. It was an experience of simplicity and beauty, which inspired this music.
