Making music to rules

This is a short snippet of the session where we were creating music for a dance collaboration with Tina Carter and Nadia Malik.

The rules were set to allow freedom of music without classical structure. So we wrote six sections then each section was pulled out of a hat at random and whichever order they came out was the order we play them in the piece. It's our job to stitch them together and make them work! Tina and Nadia are following the same rules except with dance sections

The music in the background is just one of the sections, there are five more. The overall piece will probably be about 10 minutes. 

Enjoy!
