"Set on the eve of World War I, this melodrama (from beyond the grave) is a musical account of the love story between Alma Schindler-Mahler and the visual artist and early Expressionist Oskar Kokoschka, as told in the biography (1988) of Alma written by Françoise Giroud. The composition deals with memory, misunderstanding between the two, and makes reference ot the fruit of their love, the great painting entitled Windsbraut (the Bride of the Wind). In the version for one solo singer and piano, "Alma & Oskar" was commissioned by Radio-Canada for the National Competition for Young Performers."--p.2.
