Lisa's Casting - "Will I find followers" ?

Hello!  I am back with yet another Muzoracle casting.  (Muzoracle is a storytelling/divination tool similar to the Tarot card deck, but with cards with musical concepts and 12-sided Musician's dice and Solfege dice.)  This time, my friend Lisa asked the Muzoracle if she would find followers for the new music notation system that she is developing:

My interpretation of the cards and dice are displayed below.  This time I composed a piece including strings, percussion, woodwinds and brass (since the octave card at left is in the suit of strings, the cards in the middle are the axis and the major 6th card underneath is in the suit of percussion, while the card on top laid sideways is a major 3rd card in the suit of woodwinds.  Finally, the card on the right is a minor 3rd card in the suit of brass.)  If you'd like to find out more about Muzoracle and how castings are interpreted go here:  https://muzoracle.com/

This is a short piece meant to represent the casting aurally.  The piece is in Eb since that is how the black 12-tone Musician's die landed (displayed at the bottom of the casting).  The piece starts on the scale degree of Ra descending to Do (Fb descending to Eb), followed by a leap up to Ti (D).  I let the cards decide which instruments play what and the intervals displayed on the cards determine what kind of harmony would sound above each Solfege die.  If you've gotten this far thanks for reading, and I hope you enjoy listening to this short orchestral representation of Lisa's query.  Comments are of course, always welcome.

Most interesting. The only unenjoyable thing about it was it's too short (but I acknowledge you had to follow the precepts). It comes across succinct and clear (as in uncluttered - something I should learn from). Very nice.

Also particularly interesting that you mention the parallel to the Tarot.

Yo @PeterthePapercomPoser,

I wouldn’t wanna write a description this long for a 37 second music!! My complain is the same as @Quinn: it’s too short!! So can your friend Lisa find followers?? It sounds like the outcome is not so good since it’s in c minor… (Me just trolling……)

I think your composition style is already succinct!

Thx for sharing your creative method to compose Peter!
