Real, Surface

Setting and tone manipulate audience attitude.


These manipulations may be subtle or overbearing, convincing, attractive, or offensive and insulting. Unlike the atmospherics of visual media such as film, those of sound will be perceived by the mind's eye of imagination, and the sense of mood they create will impact the listener directly.

The integrity of the composer's inner vision must be sure, and certain, and sustained.
