This brief (approx. one minute) piece features conjoined phrase halves that are rhythmic mirror images of each other. (i.e. duple eights, triplet eights, sixteenths, then the reverse). Each phrase is on the phrygian scale a fifth higher than the previous until the midpoint, where the sequence of transpositions is reversed (i.e. c, g, d, a, then the reverse) before a codetta. The performer should play very freely, as if improvising. The score appears here for C recorders, but it may be transposed for F instruments if desired.

The composer plays on the accompanying recording.
