The piece begin monophonically with the live guitar playing a one bar ostinato. Layers are added as three other guitars play the same motif but using phasing and this creates layering and the 'four part guitar canon.' the live guitar then plays the resultant melody which is the melody that stands out to the listener when two or more melodies are combined.

Moreover, the class took place in one famous music college that was just a few blocks away from my school. I used the appeals of ethos, pathos and logos to become accepted as an essential unit of this discourse community in which I had taken part in.

Inspired by British psychedelic folk and the North-American style of folk rock, Pentangle, Fairport, and other related bands began to incorporate elements of traditional British folk music into their repertoire.
