Description
Dramatic and atmospheric tone poem inspired by the “Silk Road” and Mars deserts, evoking the feelings of mystery and the wonder of discovery, along with intimations of the impermanence of natural conditions which might foster life, as well as the fragility inherent in  both the means and the results of discovery.
