Ganci & Figli

I wanted to make a piece in two sections both drawn from the same small sample set, but each with its own unique pacing and style. A model vaguely in my mind would have been like a prelude and fugue - each half capable of standing alone, but complementing each other when played together.

The full title is Ganci & Figli, named after an amazingly scaled, 24-hour rosticceria panineria in the city of Palermo, kindly introduced to me by composer/saxophonist Gianni Gebbia after our shared performance in that city a few years ago.

All music made using the programming language MAX, from Cycling74, as always.
