In this piece a solo (for the first violin) runs parallel to a trio (violin, viola, cello), but is independent in metre, speed, and style. The title is from Foucault: 'Truth is a thing of this world: it is produced only byvirtue of multiple forms of constraint.' The work was commissioned in 1997 for the Kreutzer Quartet.
