Chords:

A & Badd9

An arc of the drone represents the path that seeks a beginning and, through the long notes, seeks an end, even if it does not resemble the beginning, with the “arc” as that moment a musician is open to the journey where there is now knowledge of the beginning and the intent to know the end. And the intent may not even manifest in how the drone ends.
