Abstract

        The Matrix Soundscape Utopia for Chamber Ensembles is innovative music inspired by the sophisticated and logical concepts of the 20th Century composers. Numbers of 20th century compositions manipulated the music elements such as rhythm, pitch, harmonization, tone colors, and experiencing the new invented instruments to create new compositions. The composer came up with numbers that were selected and reinterpreted, whereby the composer’s concept was represented as the main idea composition. The numbers were divided into four movements, each having the matrix movement as main idea. The character of each movement also expanded upon different musical angles as well as the number of instruments and created the tone color to create unique tone color of each movement. Cyclic form was utilized in creating the unity among movements.
