Intellect & the Vibrations is Rhoades' eleventh CD and
marks a new level of compositional accomplishment. The central theme of
this CD project is the morphology of apparently disparate quanta and the
balance and interaction between them. For instance, the piece “Strata”
focuses on the interplay between points or grains of sound and many layers
of sound objects. A coincident underlying parallel is the sense of tension
and release created between specific decisions in the compositional
process and their interaction with multiple layers of the out of time
compositional process.
The overall form of the project also belies a morphology that takes place
stylistically from the beginning of the CD to the end.
