The piece takes its inspiration from the happy and sad masks which symbolise the Commedia dell'Arte (which features Harlequin as one of its main characters) and comprises two movements, a slow modal ballad follwed by a frenetic faster movement. This piece was commissioned by David Childs.   It is often considering "Pantomime 2" and has the some jovial, fun character.
