+ | **Annotation** : Composer Martin described the inspiration of this work as a seductive monster | ||
+ | capable of creating a spinning vortex. The six minute work features almost constant running or | ||
+ | articulated sixteenth notes, which can become very tiring at the tempo marking of quarternote | ||
+ | equals 120. The range of the work extends down to C 1 in the bass clarinet and up to Bb 4 in the | ||
+ | Bb clarinets. This individualistic writing and range are the most challenging aspects of this piece. | ||
