Note

These are exactly what it says on the package.  Four extremely short duets, which are actually just one luscious phrase, presented in the first movement.  Each subsequent movement (there aren’t many) strips things away, until there are just vibrations. Unconsciously Buddhist, tongue-in-cheek Schenkerian.
