The work's idea is based on this structural principle. contrast appears in two diametrically opposed, unmediated material types that alternate by section, each following its own rules.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e - Sections with the note E4, played normally at a constant tempo using the variative possibilities particular to the flute (vibrato, flutter tongue, microtonal deviations, timbre trills etc.);\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e - Sections with the remaining pitches, but produced percussively (key clicks, tongue ram, tongue clicks, two forms of lip pizzicato, speaking consonants into the instrument).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe two sections mediate the antagonistic quality, forming perhaps not a complete unity in Cusa's sense, but at least a formally satisfactory coexistence within a whole.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDuration: 7'.
