"The Crystalline Sense" is a composition in one movement for chamber orchestra with the following instrumentation: flute, oboe, clarinet in Bb (doubling bass clarinet in Bb), bassoon, horn in F, trumpet in Bb, trombone, percussion and strings. The composition is approximately nine minutes in length. The goals of the work are (1) to employ intra-sectional practices, (2) to derive all rhythmic ideas from the main themes, (3) to combine certain elements of chromatic, whole tone, and certain triadic structures into a valid compositional technique effective in both vertical and horizontal situations, (4) and to produce a piece of music of moderate difficulty which fully exposes each instrument technically and lyrically.
