A friendship connected the two persons.Pierre Boulez dedicated this piece to Jean-Marie Lehn and wrote on the score: ?The fragment of a future work for piano and instrumental ensemble, still in draft form. But for a Nobel Prize winner, one can make an exception and give a simple draft as a token of sympathy and admiration.?
