Description

This piece was composed in Boulder, CO in 1986, and dedicated to Cindy. It is atonal, with intervallic cells (most prominently [0.2.4]) clearly evident. The music is quite rhapsodic, and although it ascends to C#5 it is only moderately challenging. “Weltanschauung” may be defined as one’s philosophy or outlook on life.
