Cityscapes for orchestra

Cityscapes is a 13-minute work for full orchestra. It serves not only as a summary of my experiences while in Austin, Texas, but also as a representation of my musical style and creative influences. The composition consists of three movements, the first and second of which are elided into one another. The formal structure of Cityscapes is governed by the meshing and combining of recurring motivic figures, the framing of themes and sections based on two distinct scalar patterns, and the symmetry and intervallic design extrapolated from these two patterns.
