In listening back to the group improvisation I find that they are both much lass chaotic than I expected. In being a participant I feel like I was struggling to consider my own place in the collective and focus on where my no input mixing fit. I had felt at the time that the sound was totally overpowering but in the recording it comes off as really subtle. The whole piece, indeed, feels really harmonious in the way all the elements come together. The musical elements sat really nicely on top of everything else, they don’t feel like they take the attention too much, or at least the whole thing doesn’t feel like a ‘song’ per se, just a composition which happens to use instruments.
