Inspired by the dancing, flickering light of an open fire in the cold study of a country house, this piece is written for string quartet in 20th century classical style, using a mix of unusual time signatures, dissonant harmonies, rapidly interjecting melodic shapes and extremes of dynamics. Suitable for professional string quartet.
