The title 'Piao' means 'floating'. The composer is fascinated by this Chinese word because different images of 'floating' are conjured up when 'Piao' is used in conjunction with other words. When used with 'water', it designtaes endless drifting; when used with 'air', it describes non-directional falling like a leave; when used with 'earth', it could suggest the appearance of spirits; when used with 'time', it signifies the passage of time; when used with 'sound', it suggests music from a distance; when used with 'journey', it means aimless wandering. All these connotations seem to suit the sound of the flute which can be airy, light, dark, mysterious, haunting, and agile. Throughout this piece, the piano reiterates contrasting loud chords as if to give anchor to the fleeting sound of the wind instrument. Instantaneous thoughts are constantly guided and interrupted by the eternal truth.
