about

50 Explorations recordings. This recording features two compositions from my Sonic Peaks project (www.sonicpeaks.com), the second and third tracks. You can see the graphic scores at the website for Sonic Peaks.

Bitonality, bimodality, notation/improvisation/Hindustani music/free jazz/contemporary classical music synthesis, my Ekumusic ethos, trans-idiomatic and interdisciplinary structural/stylistic and moral orientation, etc., etc. I could go on and on, but ultimately music is something you listen to, and no amount of complex verbiage is going to translate to a better sonic experience. It's probably best if you put on a good set of headphones, make yourself a choice beverage, sit back, close your eyes, listen, and draw your own conclusions. If you've found this recording you already know that you're in for something sonically intense and stylistically diverse.
