The piece evokes the spirit of the tientos, instrumental works of improvisatory character cultivated in Spain during the 16th and 17th centuries. Scored for Iberian organ and euphonium, it draws on the distinctive sound world of the historical Iberian organ, known for its bright reeds, divided stops, and meantone temperament. The audio track is rendered in ¼‑comma meantone, a tuning system widely used during that period.
