And drown the wakeful anguish of the soul is a composition for chamber ensemble of thirteen performers. It is scored for flute/piccolo, clarinet, bass clarinet, two horns, percussion, piano, electric guitar, two violins, viola, cello and contrabass. The piece comprises thirteen variations on a musical idea which, although never explicitly stated, is reflected in every aspect of the work. The composed omnipresence of this idea is intended to impose homogeneity upon the variety of its manifestations.

Instrumentation: 1*(1.=picc.)-1-2*(2.-Bb+bass cl.)-1 / 1-1-1-0 / 2 perc., 1 keyb. (piano+celesta) / 1-1-1-1-1 / The work is approximately 14 minutes long, and consists of six movements which make up a series of musical tableaux, placing greater emphasis on their contrasting characters instead of on gradual and continuous development of material. These movements take their inspiration from activities or situations encountered in everyday life, thus revisiting the old tradition of "character pieces" as encountered, for example, in the music of many composers such as Schumann, Grieg or Mussorgsky. / It is followed by an analysis which examines the harmonic syntax and the language of the work as it relates to the program suggested by the title.
