This piece dates back to Vasks' Sturm and Stress period and was premiered in 1977. Freely notated over long passages, it uses both commonly notated passages and symbols as well as clusters. Vasks uses this wide range of modern piano technique for an expressive performance of both pianists. The performers have to cope with eruptions of powerful sounds and passages of great softness, while excitement alternates with contemplation.
