Intermezzo was written as a response to the waves of the ocean, as well as a reflection of the waves of a more introspective, emotional sea. A long and lyrical theme floats above a steady ostinato, perhaps as a lengthy branch of kelp might dance from the force of each coming tide.

The version of Intermezzo for bass flute and harp is featured on Jenni Olson's 2012 CD, The Dreams of Birds, on Delos Records DE3434.
