Ramathallus
Ramathallus is a genus of sessile lobate alga that represents a probable stem-Rhodophyte from the Upper Statherian, 1600 Million years ago. The holotype of Ramathallus lobatus shows a cell structure with finger-like protrusions and a coating of non-cellular apatic. The cells have a dark granular material inside of them. The organism grew by apical growth and possessed pseudoparenchymatous thallus which in turn infer a possible affinity with the Florideophyceae. Many lobate protrusions radiated from the organisms centre composed out of pseudoparenchymatous tissue interpreted as "Cell fountains" made up of variably-sized cells. Ramathallus shares a close morphological similarity with the Ediacaran genera made up of pseudoparenchymatous, lobate fossils (Thallophyca, Thallophycoides, Paramecia and Gremiphyca) from the Doushantuo phosphorites of China .

Gremiphyca
Gremiphyca is a lobed, non-mineralized alga with a pseudoparenchymatous thallus, dating to the Ediacaran period. The genus was reinvestigated by Xiao et al. and was interpreted to be a stem-group florideophyte.

Cape Virgenes

A little to the south-west, the southernmost point of land is Punta Dúngeness. Ferdinand Magellan reached it on 21 October 1520 during the Spanish expedition to East Asia and discovered a strait, now called the Strait of Magellan in his honor. As 21 October was the feast day of Saint Ursula and the Eleven Thousand Virgins, he named the cape in their honor.

Its location is the southern 52nd parallel and is an approximate antipode to Amsterdam (located at the 52nd parallel of the northern hemisphere).

The Cape is located in Santa Cruz Province, Patagonia, Argentina. The Cape Virgenes Argentine Lighthouse has been operating since 1904. In 1884, gold was found there sparking the Tierra del Fuego gold rush. Recently, rises in the number of southern right whales visiting the area have been confirmed.

Strait
A strait is a water body connecting two seas or water basins. The surface water is, for the most part, at the same elevation on both sides and can flow through the strait in either direction, although the topography generally constricts the flow somewhat. In some straits, there is a dominant directional current. Most commonly, the strait is a narrow channel that lies between two land masses. Straits are loci for sediment accumulation, with sand-sized deposits usually occurring on the two strait exits, forming subaqueous fans or deltas. Some straits are not navigable because they are too narrow, too shallow, or due to the presence of a reef or archipelago.

The work is scored for flute, trumpet, clarinet, bassoon, violin, cello and double bass, and consists of four movements:

Moderato cantabile

Allegro

Largo

Allegro energico

The Chamber Symphony has usually been compared to his colleague Dmitri Shostakovich's Symphony No. 1, with Alex Ross pointing that the work has "more personality and invention than anything by Shostakovich from the same period" while lacking "Shostakovich's rock-solid sense of form, his Beethovenian aura of inevitability". Also relating the work to Igor Stravinsky's L'Histoire du soldat and Paul Hindemith's Kammermusik, he praised the Largo as "absolutely magical" and the fast passages with its "rhythmic surprises, unusual tonal combinations, nasty little dances that start and stop".
