Congrats!!! Good composition! I like just intonation.

Magnificent! I'm not too fond of JI pieces for string sections because they tend to push on the atmospheric/ambient/pad sounds, but this one has a power to it I cannot explain, it just touched my soul! Congratulations on it!

This work was composed in Dec 2015 as a commission from Da Camera:Houston for the Museum Fine Arts Houston's Rothko Retrospective with additional performances at Rothko Chapel. Inspired by late work of Mark Rothko.
