A recording of the night, taken at a quiet place near the performance venue. Twelve minutes of nightly silence burned onto a CD. What remains is noise:

The soft noise of a street, the wind, water pipes or ventilation systems. But sometimes, a tone may appear, pulled out like a thread from the dimmed sound of the night, whispering in the muted dark.

The piece was written for the project Nightshifts, a collaboration between musicians from Salzburg and Bern.
