*Note ~ A total of six wine bottles are needed for the entire piece: four tuned to Eb3,
two tuned to E3. 

This piece evokes a scene from the ocean—undulating foghorns, shifting boats, and murmurations and chirpings of seabirds. In this sense it a soundscape, very much influenced by impressionism and experimentalism.

Each movement presents a unique scene:
I. In the Distance
II. Murmuration
III. Stillness
IV. Into the Haze.
