Raw, Resorted

Keep in mind there are couple mistakes in this performance, but overall he does a nice job.

Two more weeks roughly until I need to have some more of this cello piece done. It may sound tangential at times (intentional, innate) but is actually all based on slowly mutating sonorities---double stops low on the cello, morphing, not progressing, more like slithering---that I wrote last year. Granted these sonorities don't get repeated verbatim, but I stuck pretty well to the foundation, only straying from it for musicality, order, reorder and unpredictability.

At some point, second or third time through the chord mutation, I stretch each chord out to 3 measures instead of 1, this allowed me to have a lot of fun with superimposing different scales and suggesting various tone centers in and about the chords that were either too ambiguous prior, or just lacking color (Perfect 5th), melodic accompaniment, or movement when by their lonesome.

I have have nice pastorale in the works that is a contrast to the Ländlermazurkuation in that it's a more of a theme and variation on a melody than a variation on a sonority mutation (or more traditionally, a chord progression, see chacone). That being said, this pastorale is much sweeter and more tranquil. I feel that in addition to finishing that, I need to compose at least 2 or more little pithy little dances/movements to complete what I've done so far.
