In its own favour it is supposedly obvious that the ambiguity must not be explicitly ambiguous: not until one is convinced shall it be called in question, the balance be disturbed, the contradictory direction be revealed: - on the one hand an important tilt-question in this music is the relationship between independence of musical individuum/identities, their role in a kind of relay polyphony and the individual’s subordinated role in a quivering unstable (musical) universe being in a kind of plasma-state in which all communication across ‘time and space’ is possible in an continuum of pulse, noise and tone, beyondness and presence. – On the other hand the piece develops - well temporarily quite unambiguous - as a sort of double concerto for violin and clarinet. The music is always on its way to somewhere – but never with only one destination.
