This abstract chamber work was composed using stochastic mathematical methods (probability, Golden Ratios, Prime numbers, rotational processes). It weaves through various tonal centers (both consonant and dissonant). The overall concept was based on the idea of creating random "tonal" music. That is, both abstract and beautiful simultaneously.
