Description
Prayer for an unknown entity represents a call to the vast unknown. The vocals (which can be live or taped) provide a mantra of repeating chords while the violin swoops up and down, hoping to be heard by the "entity". The piece ends a second inversion of uncertainty.
The work is dedicated to Daniel Mihai, who performed it in 2013 as part of the "15 minutes of fame" event.
