Programme Note
Paper is made by drying fibrous pulp on a screen. In traditional papermaking, this screen is made of a fine mesh, which leaves faint lines visible on the finished paper. These lines are called 'lain lines' and 'chain lines'. This piece is a process piece, in which the instrumental lines tauten and then relax.
