I reversed the order of the thing in Bb and it makes the piece feel more alive and stimulating. I don’t know why but it works like that. After stating the first motif twice I need to move elsewhere and I’m trying something with four note arpeggios but it so far feels show off like which isn’t a good sign. Need to continue searching or else change my way of thinking. Dylan had a lyric like that on Street Legal or Slow Train Comin’, “gonna change my way of thinking, make myself a different set of rules”. Street legal wasn’t a popular record but a doozie for me, grew on me. The thing I love most about these pieces I’m writing is that they challenge my habits, they don’t work unless I’m embedded in another reality, one where if I make a mistake while doing them before an audience, I won’t have a hope in hell of fixing it. High stakes is what I’m saying. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
