Asteroid Belt for Brass Octet, Op. 269, No. 1

from CD49: Brass Music of Richard O. Burdick by Richard_O_Burdick

about

The final work created for the “Ring Cycle” is More Outer Ring, Op. 269. From maps it can be seen that the Asteroid belt is in the center of the largest space between planets in our solar system. It is virtually obvious that a planet is missing here and the Asteroid belt is what is left of the planet. This movement uses three I Ching Scales 49, 53, & 54 (of version 5 scales). It is constructed in a similar way to his We Give Thanks, in that it is musical structure that is projected through or modulated to the different keys. It has the randomness needed to depict and group of asteroids, yet it has a subtle musical cohesion.
