Product Description

Many years ago, I discovered a jazzy rock n roll riff circling around in my head, and it seemed suited for a piano trio. I jotted it down and then didnt give it much thought.

Years later, I developed a new method of composition involving the golden ratio and irrational numbers. And earlier this year, as I considered various ideas for a piano trio, I remembered the old riff, and I experimented on it using this method. What I discovered was extraordinary. With a minimal number of alterations, the riff could be turned into a very simple chorale; the chorale, in turn, could form the basis for a rustic fiddle tune.

And so, the challenge was set before me: would it be possible to write a piece that would exploit this bizarre relationship between two seemingly different ideas, one smelling of the streets of New York and the other of the Australian bush?
