first performed by Emma Speare and the composer in 1990; duration: c.12'

A three-movement sonata with a symbolic basis in the words from the end of 1 Corinthians 13: These three remain: faith, hope, and love, these three, but the greatest of these is love.

It is entirely written in the composer's own rainbow mode - based approximately on the first seven distinct tones in the harmonic series as well as the additional two notes from the octatonic scale, i.e.: C, D, E, F#, G, A, Bb, Db, Eb - but each movement is in a different transposition.
