This album was released in 1987 by Irygis violinist Darry Way, the first member of the British progressive band Curved Air, featuring the string orchestra Opus 20. Pianist Francis Monkman of Curved Air, who has also released solo works, and percussionist Frank Ricotti participate in this album. It is an elegant yet minimalist string orchestra with 14 string players (violin, viola, cello, and bass), and is reminiscent of Philip Glass's "Powaqqatsi," which was also featured in the guidebook "obscure sound. It also has an ambient feel.
