[String Quartet in Polytonality: simultaneous major & minor, partly atonal & microtonal]
Storyline
In Andante Scherzando, despite the tragic news of her friend's death, Mrs. VS attends a ballroom party and dances with young gentlemen. In La Reminiscenza, Mrs. VS delves deep into her subconscious memories, including those that may never have existed, and finds enlightenment. In Veliero & Euforia, she then travels on a sailing ship with dreams, against the wind and the waves, and becomes euphoric before reaching a rosy Romanza (Romance in between reality and fantasy) state, where she dislocates her memories and achieves self-realisation.
