Additional info/contents	'Atmospheres' was composed on behalf of the Festliche Musiktage Uster and premiered in this Swiss city on October 1, 1989. The composer used as a basis for the composition the idea that the mood in a room only changes according to the mood of the people in the room. A discussion can create an uncomfortable and tense atmosphere and unbridled laughter can create a light, happy atmosphere in the same room. The room remains the same, but the atmosphere changes. In this piece there is an 'Atmosphere' chord that does not change during the course of the piece, but is only transposed from time to time. What is built around this chord changes according to the prevailing feeling. The piece is played without interruption, but has three distinct parts and their titles are self-explanatory: 1. Mystery 2. Evil 3.
