This work uses notation BB from the Solo for Piano of the Concert for Piano and Orchestra. It consists of 4 events, the first two (produced somewhere between 0'36" and 1'00") containing auxiliary sounds, the last two (produced between 1'24" and 1'36") making use of the interior of the piano. The graphic score describes the time sequence of events (notation in space, where 1 inch equals 12 seconds), as well as volume, relative pitch, length, and tone color. Individual actions to be performed are not indicated.
