Notes:

The piece is inspired by the post-modern minimalistic artwork titled Orinoco. The whole piece is delineated into three parts where the outer parts display similar textures and elements: Repetitive minimalistic gestures exhibited by juxtaposing two continuous layers generate substantial interesting tone colors. Different repetitive parameters used comprises various rhythmic and pitch transformations. Near the beginning and the end of the sections, both instruments tend to align together with the same pitches symbolizing the adherence of the two curvy lines presented in the artwork. The central section shows substantial contrasts where the texture becomes dramatic and unexpected, imaginarily featuring the dramatic interaction of the curvy lines. Similar to the artwork, the musical style manifests my personal and distinct use of tonal minimalism while atonal post-impressionistic materials are incorporated in the middle part.
