Jun 2, 2012 at 3:02 comment added Alejandro García Iglesias thank you very much for your suggestions! I'll look forward Terry Riley. Any particular album to recommend?
Jun 1, 2012 at 20:01 comment added filzilla Another thought comes to mind. I once sat in on one of Terry Riley's classes while I was at Mills College in the 1970s. Terry has a traditional western music composition background including a MA in composition from UC Berkeley as well as becoming a professor of music at Mills College. However, along the way Terry studied Indian Classical Music under Pandit Pran Nath for many years and performed with this master on numerous occasions. I was at a number of these concerts in the 1970s and can tell you they were absolutely enchanting. I suggest you study Terry's music as it has the best of both.

Jun 1, 2012 at 4:20 comment added Alejandro García Iglesias Can you explain a little further please? I'm liking your answer but still it's not clear for me about the technical difference. For instance, what makes different modal-based from harmony-based? Thanks!
