The piece consists, as the title suggests, of three parts. Each of these parts contains a so-called large form. These consist of 39 tracks each and are played on deadwood, a drum, and on 39 pine cones, respectively. The note values, the corresponding rests, as well as the tempi are rolled. In part, the durations of the individual sequences are also determined with the dice according to a strict concept. Besides the mentioned sound sources, stones, water, footsteps, church bells, etc. also appear on this production. These sound events occur partly again 3, or 9 x.

With this game I wanted to overcome my musical habits and certain formal aspects somewhat, or question them. - Christian Wolfarth
