"Mural is a book of individual pieces, for 1-4 voices of an SATB quartet, each a page long. There is no specific way in which they should be ordered or arranged in a performance. However, if there are two quartets of singers they may sing the pieces in an overlapped antiphonal sequence"--Performance note.
Texts from various sources: "Birds of Gateshead" by K. Bowey, S. Rutherford and S. Westererg, critiques of Vermeer's 'The little street', quotations from the writings of John Cage, and poems by Fernando Pessoa, writing under the name Alberto Caeiro.
