This composition, written in February 2006, completed the sixteen month wave of creative power that started in October 2004. I could sense it was the last as it was coming out.

Unlike all the others, which told me almost immediately who or what they were about, this piece waited two months, almost to completion, before I was told in a ceremony that it was for my wife of 24 years, Sophie. I literally wept with happiness, as naturally I had wanted to have a song for her, but this new system of the song telling me what it was about made it impossible to just choose a dedication. And I was not going to pretend, and just name it, so I waited.

It is the happiest of all the compositions, in its beauty and dancing grace.

May it ever be so.
