Hello this piece is one that I wrote which was basically a framework to develop the idea of moving away from tonality. By having this piece clearly in a minor, then the next one become more tonally ambiguous but at the end, finish it off in a minor. 

 

Here's the midi to the score

For me the piece never goes out of the control of A minor, let alone tonality at all! There are clear functional harmonies in it. For me it sounds more like having some chromatic non-harmonic tones added to the otherwise functional harmony. Thx for sharing and joining!

Yeah that was the idea to start off tonally with this piece then in the next one move away from the tonal center. Overall thanks for the comment.
