Shownotes Transcript

Opfuza Ekuf (keiu azuipo) is a suite of ten pieces all one minute long.

However, the suite need not contain all ten pieces and the listener should feel free to play as many or as few of the pieces in whatever order seems appropriate.

The length of the pieces is simply an arbitrary, formal element and the listener should not feel constrained by it. Listeners with the appropriate audio editing software are encouraged to "time stretch" the pieces to whatever length they feel works best for them. Practical experience suggests that the pieces can be stretch to any time between 15 seconds and ten minutes.

There is no "definitive version" of Opfuza Ekuf (keiu azuipo) For some listeners it might consist of three or four pieces all less than thirty seconds long. Some listeners might construct a version lasting over an hour. Each version is equally valid and in the spirit of keiu azuipo.
