I began this piece as a set of bagatelles, inspired by Beethoven's Op. 126 set. However, over time the composition became cyclical. The music is contemplative, even spiritual. The third and only titled movement, Folds, I associate with misty, vast, abandoned natural landscapes, as well as pads of light, softly appearing and disappearing, on a clear and ethereal plane.
