I love the earlier, even more minimal pieces like Music With Changing Parts: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Uy_Ag7ETA4

And I love the parallels to things like I Am Sitting In A Room by Alving Lucier: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fAxHlLK3Oyk (If you're not familiar with this piece, it might be worth reading about it first - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/I_Am_Sitting_in_a_Room)

I hesitate to say this because it depends on your tastes, but I'd recommend setting aside the time to listen to these beginning to end if you can. You'll probably feel a bit fidgety for the first 10 / 15 minutes, but in my view it's really worth persevering because I find the payoffs are worth it.

"Music in 12 Parts" is my go-to for cross-country flights. Always a pleasure.

Thanks for the prompt - going to listen to that again today!
