Nature and Civilization

The ear is conditioned to expect certain sounds.


Once accustomed to familiar atmospheres in the natural world and the human environment, we tend to blur or ignore the fullness of aural perception  This same attitude persists in the context of music.

It is possible to listen, and to hear, and to compose, differently, and while in concord with elevation of awareness and the spirit of the beautiful.
