        Programme Note

        I wrote the piano pieces Seven Imperatives in 2001 as an attempt to go into the tradition of romantic and impressionist character pieces, like Grieg's Lyrical Pieces or Debussy's Preludes: small, relatively simple pieces with a motto, and usually with one prevailing sentiment, like a musical short story or a miniature painting. And now, 17 years later, each of these commands has received a response from eight musicians that are not necessarily obedient.

        The seven movements are played without interruption:

        1. SEEK
        2. PUSH
        3. SINK
        4. SPIN
        5. STAB
        6. LEAN
        7. QUIT
