Conductor's score
Inspired by the German-born architect Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, the intention was to create an orchestral work that would somehow reflect these urban corporate trophies. The piece as a whole makes use of a very sparse harmonic arsenal—employing simple, cellular collections of pitches. The music is at times very angular, always highly charged with energy, and filled with mechanical imagery.
