Abstract

The point of departure of this piece was an improvisation recorded two years earlier with Justin Yang and Grace Leslie. Although the piece ended up developing its very own compositional processes, mainly in terms of algorithmic manipulation of rhythm, the model offered by the recorded improvisation was always present to suggest important musical solutions throughout the compositional process.
