Lack of repetition combined with unfamiliar pitch progressions often makes listening to traditional Serial music difficult for people, while repetition of familiar material makes Minimalism difficult. In combining the two, I decided to use a rather angular tone row, which would mitigate the difficulties associated with each; the angular row needs enough repetitions to become familiar and enjoyable, while the repetitions are less likely to become boring due to the unfamiliarity of the row. Although not strictly serial, I hope this movement sufficiently captures the beauty of familiarised dissonance.
