Mysterious Moment for cor anglais, violin, viola, cello

Description

Mysterious piece in octatonic mode, originally written for the short story “The Door”

“High up on the grassy hill behind the town
there is a door.
It stands there in its frame with nothing
before or behind it.
It is locked shut. There is no key.

We climb the hill each day.

We play each side of the door, games of hide and seek.

But we cannot go through the door….
