In this composition, the oboist takes on the role of an infernal troubadour, performing two sinister solos. The first invokes fire, wheels, and incantations. The second is a goodbye, the musician's ancient, grinning spirit fading into oblivion. An invisible companion aids his final journey to the beyond.
