Lastuja 'Chips' - for orchestra -
i las•tu : finn. a thin, shaved off slice of wood (shaving, chip).
,,Puusta asetta vuoleksiessa lennähtelee puusepältä lastuja hänen työhuoneensa permannolle. Yksi ne lakaisee ovesta ulos, toinen nakkaa lieteen palamaan, kolmas heittää lapsille leikkikaluiksi. Tämmöiset kirjaniekan kynäelmät ovat lastuja nekin. Kun ei niitä aina henno tuleenkaan työntää, niin jättää ne niiden poimittaviksi, jotka siitä kenties ovat huvitetut.
,,
Nämä »lastuni» tässä tarjotaan sen näköisinä, jommoisiksi ne itsestään, kirjoituspöydältä pudotessaan, ovat siihen paikkaansa kähertyneet. - Juhani Aho

Altough the six events may be played as a suite, it is hoped that they be placed in different slots during the concert. For instance at the beginning, before the end, in between pieces or during tuning or an interval. They may be placed in any order at the discretion of the conductor.
NOTA The following 1/4-tone notations are used :
The smaller microtones are ordered as follows : (note that arrows are applicable in both directions, and on all accidentals)
Score in C (Piccolo sounds an 8ve higher, Contrabassoon and Contrabass an 8ve lower. Bass Clarinet sounds as written)
