The style of music is eclectic - jazz, 20 Century classical, avant-garde, concept music\n+ sounds of nature, voices of birds and animals, rain, and wind. Every composition on\nthe album corresponds to a chapter in the book. The duration is 69:33. The \u201cMalachite\nForest\u201d is a conceptual piece of music that follows a strict compositional plan intended\nto enhance the impact of the libretto.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

The \u201cbackbone\u201d of the work is made up of 5 compositions that occupy the following\nplaces in the book\/album: 1, 3, 5, 7, 9. They are written in \u201clead sheet\u201d format and use a\nfree melodic and harmonic language - three\/four tonal systems, modal techniques, etc. These 5 compositions open and present each season of the year (winter, autumn, summer, spring, winter again) and are the main driving motif in the storyline.<\/p>

They lead the protagonist, and with him the listeners, readers, and performers\nthrough the seasons. Creating the right mood sets the tone for the upcoming Trials<\/strong>that the character will experience. Composition #1 begins with the relative tonal center\n\u201cC\u201d and composition #9 is finalized and resolved in \u201cC\u201d. This allows the octave from \u201cC\u201d\nto the upper \u201cC\u201d to be divided into a 4 tonal system: \u201cC\u201d - \u201cEb\u201d - \u201cF#\u201d - \u201cA\u201d, which appears\nas the basis for the upcoming Trials<\/strong> and outlines the macrocosmic compositional plan of the whole work.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

The Trials are 4 avant-garde compositions that occupy the following places on the\nalbum: 2, 4, 6, 8. They use concepts, approaches, and styles, such as concept, aleatory,\nserial, minimalistic music, free jazz. When the protagonist overcomes them, he moves\non to odd-numbered compositions and is awarded by the \u201cMalachite Forest\u201d.<\/p>

Almost all of the Trials<\/strong> scores are written without musical notes - they are created from graphics, sketches, drawings, and pictures. You can see some of them in the book\nitself.<\/p>

Each of the four Trials :<\/p>

- corresponds to the \u201ctonal center\u201d of the 4 tonal system that was described above (\u201cC\u201d -\n\u201cEb\u201d - \u201cF#\u201d - \u201cA\u201d);<\/p>

- presents a specific challenge to the main character, related to his fears, the meaning of\nlife, temptations, and personal choices;<\/p>

- is represented by a certain animal, whose role is performed by a certain performer\/\ninstrument from the quartet, who is a soloist in the corresponding composition:<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
