The eleven pieces of the Natura cycle may be arranged and programmed in a number of ways. First and foremost, all of the works are extractable and may be performed individually. In addition, they may be programmed in a variety of combinations and sequences. The overarching macro-design for the cycle allows each work to seamlessly progress from one to the next in that each piece generally ends with the pitch or sonority on which the following piece begins. This remains true even when the cycle is arranged in different combinations and orderings. The possible design schemes are as follows:
I) “Ethers” for horn, violoncello and percussion (7’)
I) “Inward” for string quartet (11’)
III) “Tranquil” for violin and violoncello (4’)
IV) “Deep” for solo contrabass (7') (in preparation)
