Homework #2: "Transformations"

Thanks for your very spirited and imaginative contributions to today's class. I think we have a really great group.

By way of a reminder, the assignment for next Friday is to create a "tape" piece--a variation--in response to the given theme. (Note:"tape" is a misnomer of course, but historically quaint.)
