Written for the International Contemporary Ensemble and for Tenor Peter Tantsits. The work was created through ICEs First Page Commissioning Program thanks to the lead support of Frances Kazan. The first performance was given on 3 August 2016 in Hearst Plaza at Lincoln Center, New York City, U.S.A. Performance notes: As a composer I have a tendency to write music in rather low dynamics. The dynamics indicate an atmosphere and the urge to approach the music with a sense of calm rather than merely indicating the dynamic level. I do not intend for the music tobe too quiet but rather projecting a sense of serenity. I would kindly ask that the dynamics be tuned to the location of the performance and subtly dramatized as appropriate with regards to the performance space and/or concert venue. To the accompaniment of everyday lifeindicates an atmospheric approach to the music that suggests fragility and loneliness. The work was commissioned to be premiered outside, so the music was inspired by the notion of hearing the environment accompanyingthe music. - Anna Thorvaldsdottir. Language: English.

The theme of this work is man & machine, as commissioned by Michael Nicolas. The theme is represented in that the Cellist becomes both in the piece man & machine where man indicates performing expressively with emotion, and a musical approach to the music, and machine indicates more precise rhythmic and technical accuracy, a somewhat stricter approach to the music. These two approaches gradually transition from one to another throughout the work. Anna Thorvaldsdottir frequently works with large sonic structures that tend to reveal the presence of a vast variety of sustained sound materials, reflecting her sense of imaginative listening to landscapes and nature. Her music tends to portray a flowing world of sounds with an enigmatic lyrical atmosphere.
