"Dialogue" is the second in a series of three pieces dedicated to the composer Morton Feldman. All of the pieces in the series are based on the same musical material.

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.
