Pran

Many musical works attempt to tell a story or communicate an emotion. But is this story really in the piece or in the desciption? Pran has an underlying storyline, but you do not need to know what it is, nor the emotion in the composer's mind. Just make up your own .....

The origin of the piece was a student exercise set to a computer science class in late 2010; they were to write a short piece in Csound relating in any way to air, and some other constraints. I thought it only fair that I should try too. There are sounds of my breathing mixed with other natural and synthetic sounds.

Thank you CM30142 class of 2010 for forcing me out of a composer block. Their work can be found here.
