Rise of Life. Movement V of VII. This movement is about how life is created from elements that mix and mutate, and finally, over vast time, form into life. You will hear a twelve tone row; there is no real tonal center, and all the elements are at play in the primordial soup. The ability of molecules to copy themselves through RNA and DNA was a key factor in the origin of life, and the repetition of the 12 tone row echoes this process of self-replication. Bill and I created all the sounds you hear. Enjoy!
