The composition depicts the parents' efforts to keep quiet while still trying to have a meaningful conversation at the end of the day.

The composition ends with a nerve-racking, tension building moment when the baby is finally asleep and the parents can sneak away to celebrate.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhile the piece is highly programmatic, the music can stand on its own as a way to feature a marimbist and drum set player in a duo with room for the drummer to improvise.","brand":"C.
