This is a challenging atonal avant-garde work that features numerous extended techniques including multiphonics (some with glissandi), pitch-bending, harmonics, and timbral manipulations and trills. Very little traditional bassoon technique is employed. It was premiered by Lorelei Dowling in Stuttgart on 1/29/05.
