Stout-Diptych #3(2S)-2M - Product Information
This is again a two movement composition, the first being largely fast and the second slow. Both movements are based entirely on a single series of chords and the interval of a descending third. I had the distinct pleasure of recording this work with Michael Burritt on his first CD "Perpetual".
