Changing My Spots is a group improvisation whose form is open
but whose harmonic materials are fixed. Its object is to move from one
harmonic field to another, fluidly, and without a realization that a
modulation has occurred, until after the fact. Since it is based on a structure
derived from overtone relations, its sound is strongly “tonal”, but it has little
to do with traditional functional progressions.
