The title especially relate to the liquid feeling of time.
Repetitions, sequences and patterns slowly changes between each other, displacement of the tempo by accelerating step by step or freezing the tempo in a nearly statical felling of time – maybe a feeling of long lost times, which lives on in our remembrance and is blending with our presence right now.
In Liquid... has been written for Christine Pryn and Joachim Olsson.

Titlen betyder: I flydende...
Gentagelser, sekvenser og mønstrer ændres langsomt eller flettes ind og ud imellem hinanden, tempoer forskydes, bliver hurtigere og hurtigere eller fryser fast i en nærmest statisk tidsfornemmelse – måske en fornemmelse af en svunden tid, som lever i vores erindring, og som blander sig med vores tilstedeværelse her og nu.
In Liquid... er skrevet til Christine Pryn og Joachim Olsson.

Expert reviews
... I don’t recall previously hearing any music by the Hans Abrahamsen-student Martin Lohse (b.1971) – painter and poet as well as composer – but I shall certainly be keeping my ears open from now on, since his 16-minute In Liquid... is unassertively lovely...
... Lohse knows how to caress the ear and stimulate the mind at the same time: In Liquid … is all the more touching for the understatement of its emotional burden. ...

... Matin Lohse’s subtle interplay of soloist and orchestra across four movements of varied mood and tempo gives In Liquid... a more individual profile than its Pärt-meets-Glass amalgam might suggest. ...

... Martin Lohse’s In Liquid (2008/2010) is one of the most original works for accordion I have ever heard. Mogensen makes his brutal technical part sound so easy in this quasi minimalistic exercise in shifting fluid breathtaking sounds. ...

As a part of this “flow” Lohse explores poly-tempi at several places in the score, calling for the accordion to accelerate while the orchestra remains at a constant speed to thrilling effect.

... In Liquid, another commission by Mogensen, is radically different. Martin Lohse's work is almost a study in slow motion. Lohse draws out every single note both from the ensemble and the soloist. The sensation is similar to trying to run underwater. And the enforced slowness of the composition makes the listener pay closer attention to the music as it passes by. An effective work, and one that completely removes the accordion from its popular roots. ...
