Program Notes

The entire idea for this piece was for me to push past my limits as a composer and try new and innovative compositional techniques. Basically, I wanted to use musical ideas and strategies that I was always told never to use because they simply did not fit the mold of most music. To do this, I used the F# locrian scale consistently throughout the work, used a non-traditional tetrachord as the center of the piece, used serialism and a 12-tone row in a non-educational setting, flooded the piece with mixed meter, and emphasized timbral writing over melodic and harmonic writing.

"Hillslope Evolution represents the changes of erosion rates that form the slopes of hills and mountains over time. These changes are inevitable and occur at irregular rates, but the slopes are always being altered and morphed into something new. Similarly, this piece depicts the changes that occur irregularly over time.
