Program note:

Tracks takes the listener on a musical journey--a circuitous voyage through a land of varied topography. Over eight minutes, the music moves in ever tighter concentric circles before finally arriving at the destination in the final section. Simultaneous motives animate the ear's journey, creating tensions through complex overlaid rhythms. The relentless rhythmic character vanishes in the final section as the arrival is marked by the sudden appearance of a joyful melody.

Duration: 9 minutes

Tracks is now available on White Bone Country (New World Records) Stephen Gosling, piano
