But the 14th, entitled "Rituals," has been recorded, on Bis 1686, as the final part of a triptych that also includes his Book of Questions and Viola Concerto. The notes include the composer's comment that these three works were composed as "an entire concert program," so that "When played together, [they] must form an unbroken, in dramatic terms closely-thought out unity that would retain the listeners' active interest."
They certainly retain mine, and they're one of my favorite works of this composer.
