 ”The Other Side”  

“I wanted to plan a tonal “sea”. Here the “sea” is E-flat [Es in German nomenclature]-E-A, a three-note ascending motive consisting of a half step and perfect fourth. [… In Far Calls] this is extended upward from A with two major thirds and one minor third […] Using these patterns I set the “sea of tonality” from which many pantonal chords flow.”
