Research Diary

A couple of pages from the research diary.  The dates are both Jan 2015.  Both these pieces were being worked upon concurrently.  Pictured are the different scales for improvisation that fit best in a section of each of the respective works.  The numbers are bar numbers.  So in the "Constellation" page we can see that the first two bars use the C scale and the next 6 use E minor.  In some cases such as the first 8 bars of "Meditation on the beautiful" new notes are added to a scale (in this case A minor with an added F#).  That would equate to G major except that the tonal center is A.
