Notes: 




Though
I
always
like
to
try
different
compositional
techniques
and
approaches
whenever
I
begin
a
new
piece, I
often
find
the
way
I
can
best
get
a
foothold
is
to
come
up
not
with
a
harmony,
a
gesture,
or
even
a
melody,
but a
simple
musical
line—really,
just
a
series
of
pitches—that
seem
juicy
to
me,
and
pressing
on
from
there.

Out
of Line
started
off
as
an
exercise
in
taking
this
idea
to
the
extreme
by
using
a
single
line
and
exploding
it
throughout the
orchestra—I
wanted
to
make
monophonic
music
sound
as
non‐monophonic
as
possible.

As
is
always
the
case, this
was
more
of
a
jumping‐off
point
for
me
than
it
was
a
rule
to
rigorously
stick
to,
and
as
the
piece
progresses the
through‐line
opens
up
and
gives
rise
to
other
lines,
chords
and
rich
textures.
