Preludes
The titles of the individual sentences bear the names of well-known literary works. It is a composer’s gratitude to his favorite books and their authors for numerous inspirations and for immersing into foreign emotional worlds, which are now transformed into music themselves.
I Siddhartha (Hermann Hesse)
II White Nights (Fyodor Dostoyevski)
III The Metamorphosis (Franz Kafka)
IV The Stranger (Albert Camus)
