An air is a light, flowing, song-like musical structure. Using sounds of the human voice (controlled escaping air), this piece begins with energies shaped like conventional song. The 18th century scientist, Henry Cavendish, referred to hydrogen as ‘factitious air’; carbon dioxide was ‘fixed air’. Breath is ‘fixed air’: the music is light and volatile.
