TICK-TACK - A clock is not merely a measuring instrument, which
indicates a precise moment in time or measures a certain lapse of
time. A clock can also be an inspiration for a piece of music and
thus the regular ticking of a clock is at the centre of this work for
three flutes. The idea came to the composer while listening to the
beat of an old clockwork mechanism. Its regular beat is represen-
ted by an insistent 8th note movement running on incessantly in
all three flutes.
