**Annotation** : Bamert spent the majority of his career as a conductor, but did study composition
with modern greats Pierre Boulez and Karlheinz Stockhausen. This work is mostly unknown,
perhaps due to its mixed instrumentation and difficult ensemble writing. The hocketing of the
parts is the most challenging aspect of this work and it requires an ensemble with great
communication and listening abilities. The dynamics are primarily soft to very soft and will also
cause additional challenges with intonation for the players.
