Beppe wrote Op.24 during two days in the Easter of 1995. The work was written in heavy anxiety, based on melodies he had composed in his early teens. However, Beppe says the titles do not indicate this to be program music as such, they are only a clue for the listener. The music needn't be about that clue specifically.
