The piece for this homework is divided into two sections. In each section three melodies from Bela Bartok's "For Children" are played together using auditory streaming illusion and acceleration. Each melody is played by an FM instrument with different synthesis parameters. The same method for homework-2 was used for Binaural spatialization.

In the first section, all the selected melodies are in Major scale, and in the second one are in Aeolian (Minor) and Dorian modes:

Section A: Pieces No 1, 2, 5

Section B: Pieces No 3, 6, 10
