This piece is based on
the chapter of the same
name, a part of the book
'Camera Obscura' (1839)
written by Hildebrand,
pen-name of the chaplain
and writer/poet Nicolaas
Beets (Haarlem, 1814 -
Utrecht, 1903). The
composition follows the
story very closely: the
three main characters
Hildebrand, Nurks and
Boerhave, as well as
their vicissitudes are
extremely well evoked by
the music
