Living in Amsterdam for several years, I had to bike back home, passing a beautiful bridge called Enneüs Heerma. This bridge has wavy patterns as metaphor to water; I use these patterns to construct the form of the piece as two main waves of musical density. I have to admit that everyday on those moments only one thing came to my mind… one big pair of breasts. Hence the title “Brug der Spenen” witch is dutch for “Nipple Bridge”
