Program Notes:

I LOVE THIS I have spent ove a month with this playing in my car and in my workshop. I love it, but I doubt the average person will get past the opening section. This CD contains one and a half I Ching cycles, that is it starts with No. 1 and goes around a full circle and a half 1 to 64 then 1 to 32. or 96 steps. Each step is faster, so it starts slow. amazing melodies emerge from time to time and if you realize that each step of the 64 steps has a unique tonality, rythym pattern, melody, etc. it is amazing!
