The album Where the mountain crosses was released not long after. 

In 2006, this work was retitled Bergwelten, and the premiere took place in Lucerne, Switzerland, in Decembre 2006, in collaboration with choreographer Verena Weiss. Since 2001, David Morrow has been composing works for William Forsythe: Woolf Phrase II, Decreation, Ricercar, 3 Atmospheric Studies (Part I), Clouds after Cranach (Part II) and Fivefold
