The opera was first performed at the Ceolfrith Arts Association at the University of Newcastle in 1972. The work is made up entirely of fragments from A Human Document. The piece has been recorded on a 33 1/3 record and a compact disc and both these versions are also held by the Sackner Archive. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
