"Samson, our beloved eleven year old Maltese, a very special dog, had a pet of his own, a stuffed blue hippo named Buddha. Samson played with it for hours, chased it, slept with it: they were inseperable. The news of Samson's death reached me while on tour in Boston. In my hotel room I wrote this piece in his memory, in which the two instruments follow each other closely and complete each other's thoughts."
