The set of opus 95 along with opus 96 & 97 all have a similar & particular style to them. I had felt I had come to a major breakthrough in my studies. I charted the overtone series in relationship to the scale. This is a way of looking at a scale that I really like. It give the scale a signature similar to the of a star when it is looked at in spectrum analysis. Each set of notes is different.
These compositions have a tonic drone and rythym patterns above the drone in correlation to the overtone. I. e. a D in a C scale would be played every 9 beats and an E every five.
