A courageous attempt to set a contemporary story to music, this piece was first received by the press with 'a certain discord for the prosaic nature of the libretto, and later 'transformed into appreciation, reflection, and ultimately emotion'. Between the dark orchestration and anxious ostinatos, moments of emotional lyricism stand out like brief lacerations of forgetfulness from a reality as terrible as daily life.
