Beautifully Relentless, Op. 322
I Ching Music of Richard O. Burdick
A Yin/Yang Melody Cycle
Yin-Yang Beauty No. 1
A study in Horn Fifths through the 64 steps of the I Ching.
IT STARTS SLOWLY and gradually goes faster throughout.

The recording currently available is not a microtonal version of this work. Many of the I Ching Cycles rise through the imperceptibly. Rising about 20 cents per step. This recording is done in equal temperament so there are sole jumps as the work progress upwards through the 12 normal steps in a octave, not the 64 step in an octave suggested by the I Ching.

 

This work explores horn fifths through the
64 I Ching Scales
