It was performed on 10th September 1966 as part of the Unit Delta Plus Concert of Electronic Music and the concert programme entry for it reads:
Each of the short sections was composed as a piece of introductory music for the BBC, with similar rhythms, melodic intervals and sound qualities.
It was also performed as the first piece of a concert of electronic music at the Queen Elizabeth Hall on 15th January 1968.[1]
