Program Notes:
Three main concetps were carried out composing "The Situation is Dramatic but not Hopeless".
The first concept seeks one-direction motives. By this, I mean that the use of returning materials is pretty much left absent, where motives develop but don't come back to the story line.
Meanwhile, the three main sections of the piece, within a framework of introduction, development, and conclusion, enclose their unique narratives. From beginning to end, the listener will follow a mutation in styles. Within each section, the listener will follow the definition and implosion of the objects in use. Each section starts very orderly, and as time passes, their grammar evolves.
Dedicated to Ming Tsu, and Lorenz Gamma.
