Book (2006) is an unordered collection of 98 graphic compositions. The compositions represent extensions and extrapolations of conventional music notation and are available for use in any part, for any duration, by any number of performer(s), in any place, at any time. The notation and form are flexible enough to allow the performers’ abilities and interest to have extraordinary influence over the interpretation of them. But no matter how radical the interpretation or what portions, quantities or combinations of pages are used, the melodic, harmonic, textural, rhythmic and formal genetics of the composition as a whole remain evident.
