Composer’s notes

The two pieces Süd-Wind 1 and Süd-Wind 2 serve as sound bridges for the Sappho-Zyklus for piano and voice. They create an ideal atmosphere for the embedded miniature of Sappho and close with the same acoustic colour of the ney. Süd-Wind 1 and Süd-Wind 2 are like prologue and epilogue, creating a common sound with all three pieces.
