A Trip to Baja

An exercise in extended notation.

This was the fifth piece in the Composition class series. The challenge was to use extended notation. I remember not wanting to do this initially, but once I found a way to make it fun and absurd by making a sonic representation of a trip to Baja Grill (a dining hall on campus at the bottom of Schurz Hall, the dorm I stayed at my first year), I was all in.

Ambience was recorded at literal Baja Grill.
