Garden of Tones (2018)

Garden of Tones was comissioned by Indexical (Santa Cruz, CA) in partnership with Insitu Recordings (Bali/North America). The composition uses a set of three gendèr barung (keyed metallophones), two sets of arbitrarily tuned suling (bamboo flutes), and gong ageng (large gong) to achieve a variety of microtonal intervallic combinations. Inspired by the concept of a tone garden, I decided to compose a piece in which progressions of timbre, envelope, and density exist within a freely polymodal framework.
