The traditional meaning of the word 'ballad' implies a tale or narrative, and while there is no story as such being told here, I found myself thinking of the two performers as co-travelers in a terrain, or like two equal dance partners, and the music as sometimes like a song they ‘sing’ together, sometimes a landscape they cross, sometimes a mood, sometimes a monologue, and sometimes a fine line they trace. In the end, it is really a ballad about the two instruments, and the way I hear them together. This work was composed for Eve Egoyan (piano) and Andrew Smith (cello) who gave the work its premiere, and recorded it for World Edition.
