about

Triality develops a threefold relationship between creation of a theme and symmetries of the first movement, preservation of symmetries under the influence of opposing forces in the second, annihilation of it all in the beginning of the third movement leading to a reconciliation and restoration in the end.

Movement I: Similar to the 'Theme and Variations' form in western classical music, a compositional theme repeats in different keys, with significant transformations both in phraseology and distinct microtones associated to a raga and respective key change. The key changes lead to different ragas in three instances and in one instance not a raga at all but with all the hallmarks of a raga. This part can be viewed as modulation of the classical raga with created blues versions of each of them as the bridge. The underlying emotion is that of a love song and longing for a better world.
