Phillip Sear plays the first of a set of four pieces from 2013 by the British composer Kris Lennox (1983- ).

Per the biography on the website of Kris Lennox's publisher, MusicSales (extracted 19/2/2016), "Kris Lennox studied music at Strathclyde University and the RSAMD before pursuing an independent career as composer and performer. His musical interests include the application of prime number theory/graph theory/lattice theory to composition, the implementation of cryptographic systems within music, the use of DAW's to create new tonal systems for conventional instruments, and the nature of temporal modes of perception within acoustic frameworks. He is deeply concerned with challenging all assumptions that may exist with regards both composition and performance, across a diverse range of stylistic frameworks."  In this piece, the player is instructed to "try to imagine the harmonic shifts as 'synaesthetic shifts' - transitions from one luminescent plane to another." 

PS my apologies for some slight clicks at edits in this particular video - the result of HD editing is always unpredictable - particularly in music with continuous sound textures, but a click is better than an audible page turn.
