This piece, Constellations is an in depth exploration into modulatory music in just intonation. Over the course of approximately 13 minutes a series of strict modulations take place, which wander around a 3-5-7-9-11 Eikosany. An Eikosany is a 20 note just intonation microtonal scale, invented by the music theorist Ervin Wilson.
