The work was premiered by Ensemble Lontano, conducted by Odaline de la Martinez.

According to Torke, the work can be performed with multiple string parts and is compatible with symphony orchestras.

It begins with a staccato melodic line by an instrument in the woodwinds, which is later transformed into chords by the strings.

In this case, the keyboard instruments (piano, marimba and synthesizer) do not introduce anything additional to the music, for they imitate the group they belong in the composition.

The composition relies on a basic four-bar structure that goes on in time, which is typical of pop music.
