This sequence reappears in each episode as a harmonic goal for the flute, whose part circumnavigates it but never hits it exactly. Also at play in <em>Radiant Music<\/em> is a notion of fast music that moves slowly versus slow music that moves quickly. This is most evident in the &#8220;Throbbing&#8221;\u009d music which is very fast, but has an immensely slow harmonic motion, and in the conclusion, which is made of one chord reworked over a long stretch of time.  <em>Radiant Music <\/em>is dedicated to Alice K.
