The miniatures transform places, activities or even lemon sherbet into musical images, with highly varied rhythms and recurring patterns of motions. Whether ragtime or blues, Rio or Hofbräuhaus, ?Rush Hour? or ?Time to Relax? ? the rich selection reflects many atmospheric shadings between ?tranquillo? and ?vivace?.
