"Waltzing into Madness is a piece written for Sirocco for a very dramatic section involving a fatal fight between the lovers. In the story, the magic Sirocco winds have seized the town and made everyone go mad. The music intends to convey the idea that things are all becoming detached and unhinged. It is an exercise in a continuous accelerando, leading to a climax that represents the murdered woman's soul torn from her unnaturally: listen for the clanging handbells that sound desperate, spilling out violently, then helplessly finally drifting away. All the instrumental voices used here are computer-based, from the Garritan orchestra."
