The CD features three orchestral pieces – Piano Concerto, Sea-Change and Tenebrae – composed by Professor Pickard over the past twenty-four years and performed by the Norrköping Symphony Orchestra conducted by Martyn Brabbins.

This disc follows the 2008 release of a recording of three of Professor Pickard's works – Channel Firing, The Flight of Icarus and The Spindle of Necessity – also performed by the Norrköping Symphony Orchestra and released by major international label BIS records.
