This is the second part of the work using this nonatonic scale: C - C# - D - E - F - F# - G - A - B

Includes a pentatonic tune remembering Henry Cowell (growing to full clusters).

Really good second part to add on to the first; tranquil in a unique way.

Engraving things: m. 22 and 60, that's kind of an awkward way to lay out that chord... maybe use the bottom staff?

For the clusters at 52, the natural ones seem fine (you may want to use a bracket, just to indicate they're not rolled), but the one with the C-sharp in it would be really awkward to play, since the palm of the left hand doesn't really extend like that.

Yes, I think that chord (m.22 and 60) can be written in a better way, I'l go over it.
 Thanks.

About the cluster in m. 52.... it can be played better with the fingers, since the notes are in a group (C#-D-E-F-G).

There is a more elegant way to notate clusters (as Cowell stated), I've done it sometimes, but doing it with Finale is a NIGHTMARE! I'd love to have a plug-in for it.

I mean like this example:
