'El pas del temps' (The Passage of Time) is a work for symphony orchestra and choir (optional) based on four 'Tankas' by Miquel Martí Pol.The 'Tanka' is a Japanese form of poetry with 31 syllables spread over 5 lines in a 5-7-5-7-7 scheme.
The work is divided into seven parts, inter-linked by heart-beats and by the intercalated 'Tankas'.
The work was given its first performance by the Youth Orchestra and Choir of Vallès Occidental on 5 May 2002 in the Sports Pavilion of Lliçà d'Amunt.
