Sometimes I start writing a piece after reading a novel. Other times after a conversation. Still other times after listening to a concert. In this case – along with the desire of the commissioner – the spark was a void, an absence. But nothing dramatic or melancholic, mind you: the point is that the repertoire for violin, horn and piano is very and there are basically no concerts for this formation and orchestra that actually circulate. Which is a pity. So I took up the challenge and tried to invent this unicorn, this chimera, this impossible animal.
