Ces trois courtes pièces s'appuient principalement, notamment pour la première et la deuxième, sur les 5 notes ré / sol# / sib / fa# / fa, ainsi que leurs divers dérivés intervalliques et rythmiques. Ces hauteurs correspondent aux 5 lettres du prénom du dédicataire, mon fils Robin. Au fil de l'écriture, spontanément, se sont aussi greffées deux citations : 1) pièce 1, mesures 9 and 10, une évocation du motif conclusif du 3ème chant des 'Chants d'un compagnon errant' de G.Mahler... 2) la mesure 185 du 3ème mvt de la 7ème symphonie de Beethoven, jouée par les cors, a servi d'élément 'moteur' pour la pièce 3. / Guitare
