A composition in three movements for piano, the duration of which is approximately seven minutes and thirty seconds. The tonal organization employs quickly changing tonal centers. Linear aspects are of more structural importance than vertical sonorities. Frequent changes of meter, syncopation, and ostinato figurations are utilized in each movement. Primarily, a two-voiced texture is employed to effect a transparent quality of sound. A detailed thematic and formal analysis of each movement is included in the "Discussion and Analysis".
