Work introduction
Based on Novalis' "Hymns to the Night", the work plays with directions in time and consciousness. Fragments of the first hymn are woven together in a dystopian atmosphere, creating an inverted subtext of the literary work.
The playing instruments are blended with the track so that the listener can hardly distinguish what is "real" in the fog of sound.
