SKU: A0.1124418

Duration: 8 - 9 minutes, 3 pp. Description: The structure of Grid (Cynosure) is made up of several overlapping processes, of which the descending voice leading is but the easiest to discern. Shifting harmonies become an artifact of the individual descending voices, while the ebb and flow of these harmonies leads to the perception of "windows of consonance" — or harmonic nodes in C major, A major and E major. Simultaneously, the listener's temporal reference shifts gears in a process of continually augmenting pulses, changing the listener's perception of time and tempo. There is, then, a counterpoint between three different elemental processes: a melodic process, a harmonic process and a temporal process, which all co-operate to create the work's movement from tension to repose. Cynosure : noun, a person or thing that is the center of attention or admiration (the Queen was the cynosure of all eyes); from Latin cynosura, from Greek kunosoura ‘dog's tail’ (also ‘Ursa Minor’ ), from ku!n, kun- ‘dog’ + oura ‘tail.’ The term originally denoted the constellation Ursa Minor, or the star Polaris that it contains, long used as a guide by navigators.
