Work Overview
Spirals is excerpted directly from the original (April
1998) version of StarMist. Here, however, the relative
volume level is raised considerably. The piece consists of a
single gesture - (i) a long, sustained tone,
followed by (ii) an expanding pattern of pitches - repeated over
and over again. These gestures are progressively superimposed
upon one another, often transposed, and accumulate to form a
complex texture
(a tangle, a 'mighty babble'!), whereupon the piece simply ends
quite abruptly.
