I saw my task in writing the cycle that would be traditional, melodic and simultaneously rich in images. Each song has its own plot: the first one, “The Nutcrackers and Sugar Tongs” is a humorist travel account; “The Moon” conveys the feeling of an all-around moonlight; “The Bug” is close to jazz, which allows to perform it with swing; the “Six Servants” is an amusing story dedicated to truly curious creatures who are interested in everything: what, where, when, how and who?
