Dialogue is the one piece in the series that includes an element of indeterminacy. Dialogue consists of 8 repeated sections, labeled A-H in the score.
At the discretion of the individual player each of the sections can be repeated any number of times. The individual player introduces each of the different sections (A-H) in the order in which they appear in the score. After playing a section for the first time, the player is free to return to and move about among any of the previous sections before introducing the next new section. (For example: A-A-A-B-B-A-C-C-B-A-B-D-etc"¦) Players should avoid synchronizing the beginnings of sections with each other.
The piece has no set duration.
