[This music benefits from a full-sized loudspeaker.  Headphones will typically lack the requisite low-frequency response.] 

Artists interested in formal methods tend to get advice of two quite opposite sorts.  Purists urge presenting the structure objectively, so not gilding the lily.  Hedonists see structure as merely a spur to creativity, and thus, in the final product, best hidden (if not simply erased or discarded) by subjective, emotive elaborations.

Curiously, purity itself sometimes distracts from that kept pure.  Perception can get dominated by very general notions of rigidity, regularity, (near) repetition, and in the case of music, fatigue to the ear.  

The title advertises a middle course.   The structural idea involves Egyptian fraction decomposition of unity: ways to segment a monochord into distinct lengths to that each one vibrates as a harmonic of the unstopped string.   Using 6 segments, there exist 2320 ways to do this (ignoring the ordering of the segments).  Some of these involve segments so short that they vibrate so high that the tones will span an interval wider than the range of human hearing.  This piece enumerates the musically useful quarter of the catalog.  The sets of tones get applied both melodically and for building the timbres that project the melodies.  

 Sorted in one obvious way, the catalog has a particular natural large-scale harmonic logic.

The catalog gets embellished with rubato - changes in attack, decay, tempo, rate of tempo change and the use of repetition.   These non- structural details actually seem to make easier concentrating on the subtle particulars of the emergent microtonal harmonic progressions and the voice leading.  Despite zero connection to traditional music theory here, the C major prelude in the WTC might seem a distant ancestor.

Boson Spin - Toward the Elder Sign

So inspired by Georg Boehme's  gorgeous baritone sax sound, as he brings to life our original, Next Stop to Paradise. Georg has such a deep understanding of jazz, and brings so much of it into Next Stop.  Georg leads a serious jazz ensemble in Cologne, Germany - writing, arranging, playing, soloing, and probably some great parties too!  Just ask him.  Wish he were hanging around in New Canaan, CT and NYC.   Follow his wonderful music here - https://soundcloud.com/georg-boehme

Thanks as always for your generous time listening, for your comments and for your shares.  I took the photo in East Hampton, NY
