The open door of Indeterminate Music

Here is a conversation about experimental and indeterminate music with my dear friend and colleague in mastering Music Education, Lachlan. Huge thanks to James Humberstone and the fascinating Geoffrey Barnard for their seminar on the creative music movement, specifically Indeterminate Music.

I also found this a useful article for furthering my basic comprehension of indeterminate/aleatoric/chance music.

This is a resource I look forward to implementing in my future teaching of composition.
